Comments:
It was rusty, dirty, had two broken handles and the worse "Arc of Shame" I've ever seen on a table. The motor has been rebuilt and all broken parts have been replaced. The quill is out of tolerance a little. I straightened it a lot, but it needs a little more help. So far, I haven't been able to find a MT #2 Spindle for it. I found an original front pully guard and I need to find a belt enclosure. I also plan to repair the table or find a good replacement. I think this is my favorite drill press and I need to get the tolerance under control in the spindle/chuck.

I'm not 100% sure of the model number or date of manufacture yet.
