This machine was purchased by a friend for me from an old machinist. He used to fix/make parts for the local children's bikes,wagons, etc. We think he got this press from a machine shop in Miami, Fl. Press has been completely taken apart and cleaned/refurbished. the machine still drills a mean hole. The table was minimally surfaced to flatten it. All the previous "mistakes" are still there. The top gear guard was cracked. A superior welder at my work location was able to weld the cast iron back together.
