    Old Craftsman 150 Drill Press

    sorry it took so long to get back guys. the part number from Enco for the Jacobs 34-33c chuck was 505-2188. It is definitely stamped made in china on the box. I still kept my 633c chuck as a backup and will likely get jaws for it it some day. Outlaw, my DP is model 103.23640. the owners...

    Old Craftsman 150 Drill Press

    Hey , I'm restoring a 1946 built 150 as we speak and have mine tore down to every bolt. I disassembled my 633c chuck because it was sticking midway both going in or out. Upon disassembly I discovered the top thread on one of the jaws was broke and causing the problem. I looked at new jaws...

    it's 2013 garage sale season!...

    Stopped in one of the local pawn shops looking for some good drill bits and found a 76 piece Irwin Hanson USA made tap and die Super Set. It's missing 2 taps, but not a terrible replacement problem. $25 later I owned it.

    So got a great deal I think today...

    Ok, I've done some digging and upon looking at my DeWalt RAS, I have learned as suspected the guide rail wooden top is not on this saw. Is there an offical build to follow to replicate the original top, or do guys just wing it and make a top with a back guide rail one solid piece?

    It's actually a little intimidating setup with that blade so exposed, but I've been around power tools my whole life so shouldn't be a problem. I am excited to learn more about this Dewalt saw...forgot to add.. he even threw in 3 brand new blades for the RAS...still can't believe how generous...

    So got a great deal I think today...

    So today I spoke to a guy who had a hanging ad at the farm store stating "old 10" craftsman table saw - $30 OBO" and "Dewalt Radial Arm Saw -$30 OBO". Saw I thought what the heck and called him. I'm already restoring a beautiful 10" craftsman table saw 113.298842 and I am finishing building my...

    Old Craftsman Shaft??? No idea what it is...

    he said maybe 20$ he wasn't sure if it was worth that. Said he has a 440 volt industrial drill press in the garage from the 1940's too, but didnt know if he wanted to sell it or even the brand. definitely sparked my curiosity. might be worth grabbing the mandrel just to see what else is there.

    Old Craftsman Shaft??? No idea what it is...

    Hey guys, while restoring my other craftsman tools and my new Athol vise, I am in the market for finding an older grinder, and a couple odds and ends. Long story short, tonight I searched for buffer on craigslist and found this. The guy has it listed as a shaft for buffer or grinder. What the...

    Prob sounded like a *****, but my craigslist app wasnt working right last night and only showed the back side picture of the craftsman which led to my is it a 150 question. I have talked to the owner of the craftsman. Says everything is there, no broken pieces and such. Agreed to take 60$...

    Ok, so I've stared at this picture and compared it to photos of other 150 type Sears DP's. Is there something missing at the rear pulley? All the 150's I see have a multiple size step pulley in the rear. Is this right or was that just an upgrade that this does not have?

    West Omaha is an easy drive. Going that way Friday in fact. I saw that one but couldn't tell what the heck it was. Is it like the first one I posted? Or can you tell the model?

    Yeah they are all on craigslist. They are from surrounding cities like Omaha, NE and Des Moines, IA. Trying to figure out a way to get that Delta shipped here. About a 4 1/2 hour drive and really no reason to go there but for the drill. Seller doesn't mention shipping it. Any other...
