This is by far the nicest ALL ORIGINAL old tool that I have bought to date. It has only had the dust wiped off of it, I will clean off the very light surface rust. I'm still trying to find out more about the year but for now I will say the mid to late 50s. The PO got it when his uncle passed away. It also came with the mortise attachment, some bits, and 3 nice old Delta books, a extra table that would be Delta, One thing I found clamped between the motor and motor mount was a yellow tag that says ( Tested by 121 ) When I first came across it with its bad pics I thought I could use the Light and upgraded 3 handled wheel on one of my other drill presses. There time I wish I could load more pics than just 6 but this drill press looks like it has never been used. I wont say I will never use it, but it will be kept covered up and not get much use. Its not very often you find a tool 50+ years old that looks like it just came out of the box.
