I picked this up for $80 from a gentlemen that had shutdown his shop, was it a fair price? Also I have a Delta 4" as well that was made in the 80's I might try to get some ideas from that stand, the legs look identical.
Thanks for the reply, I knew for sure the stand was altered/butchered since it was in wood. Are the stands easy to come across or should I try to make one from some angle iron? Another thing I noticed was on the outfeed table on the back side of the machine there is a hole probably the same size...
Hey guys just picked this up today, cross referencing the serial number with owwm.com it looks to be a 1950's model. I'm positive the wood frame is not original but was looking to get some insight/info on the machine, the motor is massive.
Yeah I saw that link and was searching for that .275 size Outlaw had mentioned but not finding it. How did you go about removing the chuck on yours incase I decide to replace it? Also I just finished up the wiring and started it up on full speed and there is some whining noise coming from it...
It's says Jacobs MultiCraft at the bottom of the chuck its hard to read exactly what it says but I see 5/16-1/2 = DC 33 N something 33. According to Jacobs the 33 series chuck key is 1/4" when I try a 1/4 drill bit it is very loose. Could this just be from wear?
Recently picked this up wish I took a better picture before I cleaned it up but you can see the base and the pipe and the parts on the floor. Still have a few of the miscellaneous parts that I need to clean up and paint. I'm missing a chuck key and not sure what size I need, I picked up a 4 way...
