I got this guy for $65 near me - the switch is bad and it's missing the lock-pin for the table tilt. It was also missing the lever/handle for the head release but I've since replaced it. I'm waiting on a new/vintage CH switch to take on a refurb. To make sure you don't get this confused with other machines it has "Drill Press" stenciled on the side of the belt cover. I'm looking forward to this one - I've always like the design of this era - do you think that's where Giger got the Alien head design?
