I acquired this drill press free from a fellow owwmer. It is Silver's top of the line model with back gears, automatic down feed, and automatic stop. It can also be operated manually by pulling the lever. According to the catalog, it's 68" tall, weighs 660lbs, and has a 10" stroke. Originally it was lineshaft operated, but is now run by a 3HP motor. The previous owner acquired it from a farm in Indiana.
