Re: What Have I got? Could it be?... If you are not careful it is going to rust away in 600-900 years :-)

You are kidding right? You can not find a little bench top wood machinist box anymore for less that $150 in good shape. If you can find one this size with a stand and loaded with tools and expect to talk them down more then you will be watching as the next guy loads it into his car while...

I just put a post about the box on the vintage tool forum. http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=280104

I got this box and stand about 6 months ago from a estate company in Syracuse. They have a store where all the unsold estate stuff goes. Saw it listed on CL and it said "Box, stand and all tools $150". When I got there it has a sticker on it that was $300. I asked about it and didn't mention the...

Just noticed that mine has tapped holes in the DP table to mount a machining vice. Did these come stock on some or were these added by an owner?

Here is mine. Came with the table, light and the manuals. Only gave $75 to it. Never had to touch the DP, it works great. The wired it to a switch inlaid in the table, makes turning it on and off easy and safe. Motor has a reverse switch as well. Few people have told me the light is worth more...

Here is the original post where I included the link to my dropbox. The files were too large to post any other way. 2 files, one is owners manual and other is operating instructions. Hope this helps. http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?p=3741241&highlight=kawtoy#post3741241

I bought one last year that came with the original owners manuals. I scanned them all and I will post them tomorrow. They are wonderful DPs.

I use mostly mineral spirits and stuff like Simple Green, Purple Power and so on. I go to a lot of estate sales and there is always some half empty cans of mineral spirits for $0.50. Anytime I see cheap cleaners at a sale I will grab them and throw it into the mix. I have elbow length thick...

I emailed a nice letter to Simple Green telling them how much I love their stuff. Yesterday got a nice New Era fitted hat and a coupon for any Simple Green product up to $9.50. Hat is XL though so won't fit my normal sized head but my brother in law will love it.

Seller has over 5 million items for sale. So basically they are just a middle man and likely keep no inventory.

And it is from an auto supply website. Why just the other day I was working on my truck and saying to myself "I wish I had a claw hammer near by".

Glad you were able to download it easily.

Impact philips screwdriver for sure. I buy and sell old bike here (complete, not the parts) and you will use the impact on every bike guaranteed. Imagine a philips screw on the ignition cover for instance. If the bike has points then that cover had been on and off a few dozen times and the owner...

I wish the link showed a preview but it doesn't. The main file is 60MB so it doesn't take too long to download as long as your speed is decent. Hopefully a few of you will find a use for it. I guess I never really knew all the different things a drill press could do until I flipped through the...

I copied the owners manual and operating instructions for a Craftsman 150 DP model 103.24521 and 103.24531 catalog number 9-2921. My copy is from 1954. The owners manual is 32 pages, 200 pictures and the file is 60MB. The operating instructions are only 6 pages so the file is much smaller. Here...

I scanned the original owners manual and operating instructions from the 1954 Craftsman 150 DP I picked up last week. I have emailed it to a few people who asked but I would like to post on here as well so everyone who needs it can print it out. The owners manual file is too large to post...

That looks like a hell of a box. Who knows what the quality is like but you would be hard pressed to find one that sized in the US for less that $5000, regardless of who made it. 1100 lbs, 33 drawers. That things is a beast. Only gamble would be the quality of the slides, casters and overall...

The description and pics barely touched ont he real problems. "Repainted" means spray bombed. "Drawer sticks" means two drawers do not open at all and one does not close. "May need a new rail" means one of the drawers was off the rail because it was stuck and someone tried to pry it open and...

Hopefully someone will find it in better shape than this one I looked at today. $150 for a Snap On so I had to check it out. Walked away and he said "How about $100?". Still couldn't **** away fast enough. Side drawers would not open, horrible paint job with overspray on all the chrome, peeling...
