Its a bit of a pita to install but in the long run, when I don't have to re-run wires... Plus, I found an electrical contractor that had finished a job and sold me a PILE of it cheap. I often wonder why a contractor would get rid of things that would surely be able to be used in the future, but...

Armored wire.

I went with plugging lights into outlets. I wasn't sure if the lighting I had on-hand would be bright enough AND the option of plugging in an ext cord if needed was a good option imho. I understand the outlet only works while the switch is on, I have plenty of wall outlets so that didn't bother...

I have a similar mag-drill! It is great, Whats behind it in that pic? Is it a flywheel re-surfacer?

Meh. What size is the auto drain tube? I've seen too many get turd-ed up and stop working. My manual has yet to fail. I have a dual R30 compressor that has auto drains so I'll keep an eye on the thread. I could care-less what people think of my response(s).

My Champion r15 was got second hand. I just hooked a ball valve to the 3/4 pipe output at the bottom and plumbed the drain outside.

I have this one too, been pretty happy with it!

It doesn't fit the tables T-slots. Im not sure why he sent it with the drill other than maybe it came with the drill. He said he got the dp from a place he used to work at.

Thanks for the info on the bearings! I had already read and ordered some. I will try removal tonight. I've seen where some of these have an MT2 spindle. It doesn't appear that mine does. Are there multiple spindles out there? I wonder if one of my parts drill press heads may have a donor...

I started putting the DP together today. Its got some crunchy bearings where the head slides forward and back. I will be ordering some of those. The guy sent a cross-slide with the DP. I'm not sure what this goes to, but its not my DP. It looks like PE1844 on the underside. Any ideas?

Looks like $131 before tax and shipping.

SWEET! looks like a 36115300 and a 36115200? Got a website or phone number they came from? A P.M. works too if ya like.

Well $300 and it's here.

Yup. He's not available till after 230 so it'll be later tonight.

It would appear as if I will be picking this up later today.

The seller messaged me this morning "whats your offer". We'll see if he wants to get rid of it.

The last bench I built is still in use at my old house. Its probably 20yrs old by now. I lag bolted a 2x8 to the stud walls, then glued and nailed 2x4s to that, with a stainless sheet top on it. That gave me a tad over 3.5 inch thick bench to wail on if needed but still cleaned up pretty easy. I...

Might have been a different story if the wife wasn't there...

Well, its hard to justify buying this(for me) for more than a couple hundred dollars. I have a nice royal 18 and 2 DP600s on production bases. The guy said another person wanted to look at it, so I said see if he wants it for asking price. I hate to let it go, but have SO many other projects...

I got home and tested it out, it works good! Put it back in the box cause its a Christmas gift.
