Got this Delta/Rockwell drill press and an old P-C router in a yard sale on a whim. At first, I checked the router out. While I was buying it, I felt a "tugging" on my back. When I turned, I saw the DP. The more I looked at it, the more I liked it. Despite the fact that it was set up with the mortiser attachment and no drill chuck, it may still be found in the seller's father's shop. Otherwise, it is all there. And it is the right size for my little shop and purposes. Oh, the P-C router is a Model 1100, not the "Guild" type. The dome type.

Comments: As you could tell, that base is a sorry rusty mess! It's going to be fun to get the set screws out to release the column from the base.
