Hi, I’m working on restoring this motor. I’ve already destroyed one rubber motor mount trying to remove it. I don’t want to be getting paint stripper or Evaporust on them, but man, they’re on tight! Does anyone have any advice on removing these, or finding replacements? Thanks,

How about these:

Hi, Does anyone have this drill press? Should be comparable to Atlas (53?) and Craftsman light duty drill presses from around 1940. I need to replace the four step v-belt pulley on the motor. It's the only part I'm missing. Can someone tell me if the dimensions are the same as the spindle...

Never mind, got it back together and it works fine.

So I'm cleaning up a vintage Thor U44 half inch drill, and neglected to get enough pictures of the internals in the back end, where the brushes are. Any chance someone has one, and could remove the back handle and snap some pics? Thanks in advance!!
