I found this post drill on craigslist in a neighboring town. The previous owner had gotten it at an old farm sale. The drill is fully functional, although a new linkage between the cam and the drill feed was made by a previous owner. This is a two speed model with the slow speed being best for metal.

I originally mounted the drill much too high, especially for the slow speed shaft. Installing it below shoulder height is a must of you do much drilling.
