If you have anvil or something hard to lay it on. Hold the bent end up and smash with a 3 pound sledge. Did a few that way never had any issues

Stand came with it. Vise collection is pretty small right now kept a few cool ones but sold most of them off, guys would come over to buy one and leave with three, but I am still always hunting for them.

Fixed up a Delta grinder built in 1947 still running strong after all these years.

Did a partial refurbishment on the Delta 220 paint was decent so just cleaned it up got the rust off and shot the painted parts with a clear coat.

If you break this one.... you have done something. ATHOLS are one of my favorites.

Nicely Done

Fixing it would be less then $50 and would bring the value up more then the $50 you spend. If you need help on fixing just ask lots of good guys on here that can walk you through it.

You don't need to heat it to 400 degrees. You can apply a thin coat and use a propane torch on it. Works fine

They came with a Wilton decal and if used much promptly comes off.

Here is a little gem I found came with the slow speed pulley also. It cleaned up really nice

Found a old 4 bank drill press, drills were worn out but table was fantastic. Bit heavy but enjoying it so far.

I just picked up the same press it has a 3 phase motor so getting a VFD to run it. Really interested to see your finished product and if you can send me to where you got the bearing that would be great. Thanks

I have restored a few of these never had a swivel lock stuck. Try more heat let it cool spray some Kroil on it stuff works pretty good. Rap it with a hammer a few times.

Not sure maybe has to do with the the Pipe jaws or that your xtra special :bounce:

Something is funky with the jaws.
