Vintage Atlas Drill Press

[jywilli69]

I went yesterday morning to a guys house. His name was Dave and goes by Red Leader. I didn't have a clue, but a nice guy and great little munchkins.I picked up a Atlas Drill Press which I think is very cool.

What was your point? I picked up a Drill Press from Dave. I didn't say anything else and yes Dave did a Partial Restore. I don't see your point of your post.

I think I spot a center pulley on that Atlas! Nice find!

you mention buying something from another forum member and get offended when someone references that other member?

Gotcha, didn't know he was referencing it. No I am not offended, just ask a question.

I love it when threads here come full circle.

NICE machine! I grew up learning the drill press on a floor standing version of that. Not too long ago the plastic spline collar broke. Turns out that you can still get parts from Clausing, and at reasonable prices too!

I think it is cool. A friend of mine loves drill presses, he has one heck of a collection.

Looks like a '40s era CM grinder sitting behind it as well.

I got tires for the little crown logo bandsaw (horizontal) and they were only about $5.00 each, and about $6.00 shipping. The lady was nice to deal with too.
