Craftsman/Dunlap 101.03600 Floor Model Drill Press. Hard to say for sure but I believe its a 1941. It's a 12 3/4" DP, 2 1/4" column. Crusty tag on the base stamped 101.03600 but I can't read anything else on it. I came across this DP locally and it was too reasonable to pass by especially since it had the MSA. Interesting that the front belt cover is casted as Craftsman but it has the Dunlap badge on the side. I understand this is not uncommon during the war years as manufacturers used parts they had on hand to assemble machines. I measured the distance between the Dunlap emblem rivets and it's 2 3/8". The rivets/badge don't appear to have ever been removed. The paint on the head matches the paint on the belt cover etc.. and doesn't appear to have been repainted. Best I can tell , this mix of Dunlap and Craftsman badgingis the way the DP was purchased. The pictures in the ad didn't show the base but I could see it was a floor model. I thought that maybe someone just swapped in a longer post but no, it's a floor model. This DP is smaller then my 15" DPs but it's very cool. Need to get a correct motor and motor pulley. The MSA is nice too. When the weather warms up in the spring I'll refurbish this machine.
