This Homecraft Model 11-120 drill press was bought off the Detroit area Craigslist in the fall of 2015 and picked up for me by a friend in the local area. My plans were to have my neighbor bring in back to Central Texas on one of his trucking runs up to Michigan. When his run was changed to the east coast I decided to make a trip up to Michigan (I grew up there) to pick up this drill press and a few other machines I bought at the same time locally. My plans were to restore this drill press and then sell it off the a good customer in Central Texas who is into the Homecraft machines and has a few of them already.
This drill press was totally taken apart, all parts cleaned and polished then all castings were painted in a two part Awl Grip polyurethane paint system mixed to match the original Delta gray color. This Homecraft drill press is whisper quite and has less than .0002 run out and is very accurate and fun to use. The Homecraft Model 11-120 11 inch drill presses have a great reputation for durability and accuracy all over the world.
