Found Machine on Kansas City "Craig's List". A retired machinist owned the drill press. Purchased the machine primarily for the production table assembly for use on my 15-655 variable speed drill press, plus some morse taper attachments included with the machine. Rebuilt the drill press as a permanent mortising machine utilizing the Delta 15-840 mortising attachment and a Delta 15-820 foot feed assembly. Made an improved upper finger plate that pulls down the quill, made it such that it completely wraps around the quill and will not pull off of the stop collar when under extreme load.
