Heres a pic of the finished product. No perfect but it'll last. I'm a big fan of rustoleum. When I saw this fancy hammered style paint I jumped at it. From what I can tell it carries a bigger variety of hammered colors and the spray nozzle it a trigger type. After using it I would not recommend...

Seriously wish you would have posted this couple hours ago! It wasn't anything you mentioned but it wasnt the spacers and washers either. After splitting the ends and resoldering some of the loose wires a wire was catching/rubbing from underneath. Took it back apart and arranged the wires out of...

Ive tried every possible configuration on these rubber, retaining and plastic washers without any luck. The motor still doesn't spin like it should. I'm stuck and frustrated.

Sorry your right it is the 3/4 hp motor

Alright guys I'm stuck already (I knew is was coming). I have disassembled, painted but not going to be able to pick up replacement bearings until next week. I've been attempting to reassemble the motor for the last two hours. I did not take notes or document the the washer and circlip for the...

Is it something you would recommend doing. They are worn but fully intact. on the fence now. Pulled the quill today and although there isn't any play in them the bearings are rough. Replacements?

I'm in the same boat. I did a couple quick searches last night but all I'm coming up with is grainger. Mine have a metal ring where they meet the mount, even if graingers were the same specs I dont think they'd work. I llok some more this weekend. If I find anything I'll be sure to post.

Good to know, its going to get a lot of use. Thanks

Couple of shots so far. Done with an abrasive wheel on the angle grinder. And a bunch of steel/brass wheels on the corded hand drill. Happy so far, no idea how to clean the head unit though. Table is pretty gouged in spots.

Awesome, thanks for the help. I'll give it a go this weekend.

So oil by hand often?

Thanks for the help fellas, I'll post some picks on the process. I dont have an abrasive blaster yet so the stripping has mostly been dome with an abrasive wheel on an angle grinder. Question about the snap ring to get the spindle out? ANybody reccommend one that will reach it? Or some other...

I'm new so why would roller bearings be better? Longer motor life?

I'll run it with the pulley that came with it for now. So those circular motor mounts just slide off? They look like they do but they're pretty beat up. I'll see what I can dig up in the net. Any idea what they're actually called? I the press will be used mostly for metal. I'm building a Honda...

It has a 1750 motor on it now. The "ends" you're talking about are the rubber boot looking things? Thats what I figured but i wanted to check in with you guys first. They are very worn and cracking in some areas. I'll check out youtude for sure, thanks.

I has came up on a few of my searches. I'll check it out. Thanks for the manual!

Good to know, thanks. "Compressor motor" is written on it.

Picked it up on craigslist. $175, not exactly the best deal from what I've read from here but it was what I wanted. I'm a weekend warrior and decide a few months back that I wanted a drill press. After looking at all the normal places for one I realized it would have to be a bench top model and...

I new the spindle was wrong just from the research I did on this site.

I discovered this forum while searching for info on this DP before I decided to pick it up. Forum is awesome. Lots of ideas and cool tools. Serial Number on the DP is 103.24531. Curious to know when it was made. At least narrowing it down some. I don't believe that the motor is original. It runs...
