This is the best I have right now. I did some more paint removal and it looks like it has mounting holes 3.75" on center, placing it 1947-1952 according to what I've read.
Thanks Bisley45 for that info. The nameplate you show is the first I have found that looks like the one on my machine. I may have actually found some mounting holes where I think the serial plate should be, but they seem to be much more spread apart than the measurements I've read about on the...
Thanks, I think you're right. Damn thing is solid as a rock and runs true. It helps that I got it with 2 extra chucks and 3 or 4 new old stock bits still in the paper packaging all for $61!!
Just picked up this DP600 at auction. Can anyone help with where a serial number should be? It's definitely been painted over at some point, all I have done so far is clean it off and put a cord on it. Still runs well.
