I picked up this Delta/Rockwell drill press for $100 and it seems to be in really good condition. Serial # 118-6519, 7-1/2 from center of spindle to the post, 1/3 hp motor (model 62-110) so if Im correct it would be a 1956-58 15 drill press. It also came with a Jacobs Chuck, model # 633C. If found the model # inside the head casting, DP-500, and used the DP-5A parts sheet (6" travel range).
