    Just picked these up the other day. Little rough on the outside. Could use some TLC. But everything works like factory new. The born on dates are 66, 67 and 74. All of the boxes came chock full of tools. Some **** tools but most were definitely keepable.

    Man I wish they would have stayed with those types of slides over the friction slides. I have one like it as well and to this day it's still smoother then the others.

    Craftsman Drill Press

    I'd have to completely agree with Frank. All my presses are foot switch wired. Love not having to reach around the machine to start and stop it, especially if something bad happens, knock on wood. Although mine are not newer foot pedals like the one in the picture.

    Craftsman Block motor Bench Grinders - What's the Fuss (with resource information)

    Novus polish is what I use and works very good. It's not a miracle maker but gets the job done. I also use it on my welding hood and headlights.

    Nice write up buddy. You can also see in the pictures I posted that the slide section was also made different. The black slide is V shaped where the silver is more of a U shaped... And my 75 lower box has the badge where the letters are not cut out. Guess they got cheap and didn't want to spend...

    So I discovered something interesting today while trying to fix a drawer slide today. A top box that I picked up last month was badly abused which resulted in twizzler looking drawer slides ( you can see pictures few pages back). So I was able to straighten one but the other was shot. A GJ...
