Chicago Power Tool Drill Press (Not HF)

[liliysdad]

Im looking at this drill press, as its local. Its seems to be pretty solid, I just cant find much on the company. I assume, based on the date, that its US made. Anyone have any info on this thing?

Don't hold me too the following because sometimes I can be wrong, but if I was a betting man (don't ask) I believe that your chicago drill press comes from Taiwan not the USA.

For that price I don't think it matters where it was made.

Taiwan? Really? I didnt think Taiwan was a real big player in the mid 70s. Thats a bit before my time, so I really have no idea.

Either way, it looks pretty decent for what I need. I talked to the guy earlier, and its mine, for quite a bit less than the price listed.

Good point buy it and enjoy using it!
