It’s just missing the bottom metal plate the protects all the wires, will prob have to make one unless someone happens to have one Laying around somewhere,

Hey guys thanks for all your help, the wiring was correct ended up having a bad batch of bulbs believe it or not, got some leds and works great now. Thanks again for all the help

I just redid it like it was, it has 2 wires coming out of the motor and the lights i have both blacks going to the one wire and the whites it’s going to the other, i will take a better pic

Any help would be much appreciated, got a vintage Delta Bench Grinder 23-105 from my uncle, it worked but the light bulbs blew as soon as you turned the grinder on so I rewired the whole thing with grounds and it does the same thing the light bulbs blow as soon as you turn it on. Grinder works...

Found a Vintage Di-acro 12" metal sheer in my uncles garage serial # 1-1243. Looking to see if anyone knows any information like the year its from etc or what this is worth, don't know if I want to keep it or sell it. Pics are below, any info would be appreciated, thank you

did you have to change the ballast or just direct replacement?

Sounds good thank you i will up how you change them, shouldn’t be too hard i wouldn’t think there isn’t much to the drill press lol

so i tightened the spring and lubed up the pinon and it seems to be working good now, I am still going to drop the pinon and give it a good cleaning but what to use the drill a little bit first. Thanks fir the help, love this old drill press

Any special way to lube the pinion shaft or just spray it where it goes threw the body?

Yea i made it tighter but didn’t help, I’m goin to lube it tonight see if that helps, it’s starts to return than stops

hey guy just picked up a Delta DP220, seems to be a lower serial number so I’m assuming real early 1940s. Works great just doesn’t return all the way up on its own prob needs a new return spring I would assume. What do you guys think?

Anyone sell a replacement? I will prob have to weld up some of the holes and re tap and drill
