I found this on eBay and picked it up for almost nothing. Shipping cost more than the drill press. I couldn't make out the name from the pics posted on eBay and the seller was slow to respond. After filtering my search by machine and scrolling thru almost every drill press posted, I came across the exact pictures that Bob P. had seen and was kind enough to register on VM.org. I sandblasted every part, scabbed in a foot that was broken off, applied a few coats of paint, added some set screws and what you see is the finished product. I have no idea what I'll do with it, but I had to have it and work on it. This is the same Gardam & Sons drill press seen in the only other posting.
