I bought this at full asking price for my birthday a few years ago. It was the first floor model drill press that I ever purchased in my life and it is one of the few machines that I absolutely love in my collection. I think it is the perfect size for a home workshop and I love the styling, especially the round base plate. It has an original Walker Turner motor and I purchased it from the daughter of the original owner who had also dearly loved this press. I never found out exactly why this particular press has two tables.
