This was an Estate Sale find. Patent # 2072646. This is my 2nd Posting of this Drill Press, as it never appeared in my Profile so maybe I Goofed Up. The drill was a green color as found, so not knowing the Original color, I went with Rust-Oleum Painters Touch, Hunter Green Semi Gloss #249853. And I think the color came out to my liking. The 2-1/2 inch metal Plate on the front of the drill press was only a shiny plate with the small engraved Model #, Serial # and Patent #, so I improvised to make it legible. The Motor is a Hoover 1/2 H.P. 115/230 Volts, Ph. 1, 1725 rpm. and I painted the motor with Rust-Oleum Semi Gloss Black # 334097. The 4 stage pulley on the motor was froze on the shaft, and broke it with a puller, so had to hacksaw it to get it off the shaft, and replaced the Pulley.
