Atlas Model 51 drill press. It was given to me by my neighbor years ago. He is currently in his eighties. He remembered his father using it in their shop. It was repainted at some point prior to my ownership but appears to be a close match to the original paint. I was able to gently remove the paint and reveal the original Atlas decal. I've used this in my shop and it works great. Seems to be in excellent shape. Has a Marathon Electric Mfg. Corp. motor on it. I put some new bearings in it and replace the belt. One of the ball knobs on the pilot feed lever is broken and I'd like to replace it eventually. Runs like a champ!
