    11b30b4’s Craftsman 103.22500 6” Belt Disc Sander Rebuild

    I prefer the 103.22500 tracking system. The tracking system on the 22540 is not great and impossible to adjust one handed.

    It does, Emerson began adding the mounting point to all tables starting with the Gen 2 drill press. The tilting table does show up from time to time on ebay but the best way to get one is to buy a drill press with one on it, then resell the drill press after you remove the tilting table. This is...

    the Commercial model is great but you may still need to slow the rpms down depending on what you are drilling. There is a rare slow speed attachment for the Emerson later models. Here is a video about it.

    Craftsman Drill Press

    Franklee, do you think the casters are from an old factory dolly cart? it is what comes to mind when I look at them. Outlaw, the base of the pedestal and the columns may be the same as the 6" Jointer but the top mounts on my 6" Jointer are not square like the ones on my wood lathe pedestal. It...

    Craftsman Drill Press

    Very nice catch. Original receipt for a dp in great condition is awesome. The wood lathe pedestal is one of the hardest for me to locate. I have only seen 3 for sale in my area over the years and eventually snagged one. The lathe is ok but I prefer the 100 series wood lathe. The bed is way...

    Craftsman Drill Press

    Lots of good information in the past few posts. I never really considered the stud could lock the head to the column but that makes perfect sense. It is a good practice to always block the head when disassembling. I often place a piece of 2x4 between the bottom of the head and the top of the...

    You will need to message FrankLee here on Garage Journal. He is the expert on the 12.5" drill press. I normally only work with the 15.5" drill presses.

    11b30b4's Craftsman-King Seeley 103.24300 12" 3-Wheel Band Saw Rebuild

    Yep, both stands were available for most wood working tools. I have seen a big variety of mounting these tools but probably the most common was to make a wood stand. I assume most people figured why buy a stand when you could make one for fairly cheap and make it fit your work space and needs.

    11b30b4’s Craftsman 103.22500 6” Belt Disc Sander Rebuild

    So for my 103.22500, the manual calls for a ½ hp 3450 rpm motor and for continuous operation, a ¾ hp 3450 rpm motor. The speed attained with a 2” pulley is 2700 rpm. The tool pulley size is not specified but I think it is a 2” or 2 ¼”. For the 103.22540, the information is the same. Both of...

    The Vintage Craftsman GP Motor Thread

    There are several other tools that run 1725-1750 rpms. Wood lathes and scroll saws come to mind. I am not sure of the metal lathes ran at 1750 or 3450 rpms. The only tool I have that has a reversing switch is my shaper and that thing runs at 3450. The reversing switch is a separate attachment...

    The Vintage Craftsman GP Motor Thread

    Sounds like one of the lead wirers is connected to the wrong place on the terminal bar and/or thermal protection switch. I recently had a similar problem. Upon reassembling my motor (also a 1 hp) I noticed that one of the wires that run from the terminal bar to the thermal protector had come...

    Both aluminum and Zamak can soak in simple green with no issue. It's the Citric acid I do a quick soak of the Zamak and Aluminum. By quick I mean 1-2 hours then remove and rinse.
