Been there done that to all of the above.
I have a piece of steel rod that I put in the chuck to locate the pin on the table, I have checked the table for squareness to the drill but using a rod and one point that is directly on the line of the chuck it would have no effect in this instance. When I use the rod I rotate the chuck over the point to make sure that: A) the rod is straight and B) the chuck is not screwed up.
I do however run the drill press at a slow speed and will try speeding it up.
Maybe it's just the wonderful SYP I'm using for these?
SYP = southern yellow poplar, it don't rot no faster than maple or any other white wood.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
