I found this machine on Letgo. It belonged to the Seller's Great Grandfather. His mother loaned it to his nephew and it came back broken. It has been through hell. I knew the head casting was broken and I found another casting with the same badge. When I got it home and started disassembling it, I found that the quill was bent. I tried to straighten it but I couldn't get it straight enough, so I got a replacement. The motor was an old Westinghouse, so I got a nice Capacitor Driver Line motor for it. I also found a nice On/Off Switch for it. I have to find a quill cover with the oil cap for it. I bought the last one I saw on eBay a while back.
It has a 31" column, a Slow Speed Pulley Attachment and an old Work Hold-Down Device. I do not think the hold-down device is original to this machine. I think I put the Motor Pulley on upside down......

If this had been a Floor Model, it'd be my favorite press...…….
