Comments:
I First purchased this drill press in April of 2019, just prior to health issues postponing restoration. Note in the photos that this restoration began as a bench mounted drill press when I discovered someone selling a Floor base and column of the same size as the bench model, so decided I'd finish my restoration by converting my vintage Craftsman Drill Press to a floor standing model instead. Finally, after two years of sitting idle and nearly 3 months of work, this project was completed successfully in early 2022!
