I found this Model No. 15 Drill Press on FaceBook Marketplace for $125 dollars. It did not run. It is powered by a pre-1945 Westinghouse motor. The motor wiring has been repaired and I am awaiting a custom-made capacitor from the original manufacturer (Cornell-Dubilier). I have stripped and repainted the drill press Smoke Gray and will paint the motor gloss black.
