Time to get to work on it when I get home. I have all of it but the motor painted and assembled. I also got new belts at ACE hardware, for about $10 I think. Unfortunately, I'm out of town on business, so I can't tell ya how it works.

$90, done in 1 day, gave me a new power cord, and switch to make it work. Click to expand.hmph, I guess there really IS a forum for EVERYTHING!

While it is not some big Clausing or radial arm drill, it is a damn good tool. Enco is a good source for the home hobbyist and light industrial work. You'll likely end up rigging up a spring from the hardware store as well. If you are bent of fixing it though, any decent sized city has at least a few electric motor service outfits that service the billions of motors that maintain the american way of life.Д«elts are available at the hardware store, sold as fractional horsepower V belts. I don't think the motor is really any thing to value too highly, and it is likely cheaper to replace rather than rewind. And the motor switch crapped out in the late 80s, so he rewired it to the light switch. The motor capacitor took a shit in the mid 70s, so it has been a hand-start operation ever since. That about does it for today, thanks again, JL.ДЄn identical unit has been a staple in my father's shop since before i was born. I am fabbing up roll cage gussets, gun drilling steering column, etc and could use some bits to get the ball rolling once I get the drill working. What TYPE should I get? Bang for the buck here.Harbor Freight didn't have anything remotely close to what I need. Also, while I'm at it, where is a good source to get some FAT (1 inch or so) drill bits for this?

I agree that it's truly built like a tank- and has withstood moving from 6 different locations of my father's shop as his business grew. When I got a little older to help out in Dad's shop- that was my drill press to work on.

The drill press was near new then, and he was quite happy to have found it. Reason I know this, is that when I was a little girl, the drill press was in my father's gunsmithing shop, in the early 80's. It is circa 1970's- probably mid to late 70's. He would know so much more about it, but unfortunately he passed away this July. I actually have one of these Chicago drill presses that you speak of!ДЄctually, I sort of have it indirectly- it was my father's.
