    Show us your drill press

    I just picked up this craftsman 103.24820 drill press last night. I'm going to put another 50 years on this tool. I am replacing my current duracraft drill press with this one :) I can't think of a good reason to keep both, but I would if I had the space.

    Arbor press usefulness ?

    I found two Dake arbor presses over the past year on Craigslist for under $100 each. If you don't need one soon, I think you could find a nice press for just a little more than the HF ones cost.

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    Here are my two. I recently picked up the columbian 204 1/2 at a craigslist stop, and I've had the new wilton for a year or two. I'm probably just going to wipe down the columbian vise. I don't think I'll have to strip and paint it.
