I purchased this drill press for $100 after seeing it on Facebook marketplace May, 2025. The DP was 5 miles away from my residence! The story goes that the now ex-husband rebuilt the DP completely and it was in good working order. Then they got divorced and the ex-husband didn’t take the DP with him, just the original motor. 2 years later it was posted on marketplace. I’d like to know when the DP was manufactured. It has an Air Force metal tag, not pictured. I have yet to move it to my shop because I need to build a gantry to take the DP apart and move safely.
