It is possible, but your chances I’d say is low. You might be able to find some, but depends on which part. Most parts can be replaced with something similar. Like bearings, gears, and belt. You can also open it up and see the parts are in the way they’re supposed to be. Check the bearings. It could be an easy fix.

Thanks for the tip. I’m little better now at soldering.

It’s a good Drill Press. I sold mine unfortunately. Thank you for sharing your memory.

@@VintageCraftsmanTools 👍

Thank you very much. I appreciate it. Thanks for watching.

Thank you very much. I appreciate it. I like it too, comes in handy. Thanks for watching.

Thank you and thanks for watching. 👍

You’re very welcome. Thanks for watching.

Very nice. After I restored mine, I bought a wooden box from Total Wine, and made it as a box for this tool. I’m not planning to use it anytime soon. To be honest with you, I spent too much time polishing it, so I decided to keep it as a collectable item. I have few switches in my tool box. I’ll check, and if I find an extra one, I’ll give it to you. (If I find one). I just have to look around. Is yours the same model as mine?

Thank you very much. I appreciate it.

Thank you very much. I always wanted one of these. Thank you for watching.

Thank you very much. I appreciate it.

Hi. I’m glad that you also have a piece of craftsmanship. I believe that the original ones weren’t shiny. I just like to make the tools that I want to collect shiny. I still have it. Indeed great tools. Thank you for watching.

Thank you very much. Now I get to learn something new. Thank you for watching.

Thank you for explaining that to me. It made it easier. I don’t use mine much. Trying to keep it clean for my collection. Thank you for watching. I appreciate it.

I’m sorry I already sold it. And I regret that I sold it. It was a very good grinder. I hope you find one.

@@VintageCraftsmanTools that’s ok, thankyou they are so rare

Hi. Sorry for my late response. Have you ever opened it for a service? It happens to me sometimes but in my case, I open every motor that I get and service them. So in my case, it’s usually the wiring, where I incorrectly connected the wires. The Assembly Switch inside could be a reason. The wools inside the old bush bearings could be another reason. Maybe it’s to replace them. Also maybe the AC’s body could be either loose or too tight. The ventilation could be a reason too. Maybe it has collected lot of dust. This is based on my experience though. Good luck with your motor.

Hi. Unfortunately I sold this a while ago and still regret doing so.

Thank you very much. I usually do 100, 400, 600, and 1000 grit. If I really want it shiny then, I add a 3000 grit as well. Thanks for watching.

12V? Very interesting. Is it battery operated? Thanks for watching.

@@VintageCraftsmanTools i guess we can say it is since its designed to work with your car's battery. it have two alligator clamps which you connect to your battery poles. i think it was designed to be used to change the tyres in your car as an effortless alternative to the usual lug wrench

@@lonewolf9488 very interesting. After your comment I got curious and searched for the amp on the car’s battery. Looks like on average it’s about 48amp. And that’s lot of power. Make sense now. Thanks for your comment. I learned something new.

@@VintageCraftsmanTools you perhaps find interesting a brand called ROBOIMPACT who makes a 24 volts impact wrench for the US army. Is designed to be connected to slave receptacle ( used to jump one vehicle with other vehicle via a cable and connector) . i think is in service since early 2000 so a bit old already. is not that vintage as the model we discuss here but still an interesting piece . there's a couple videos of that tool here on TH-cam. my regards.

@@enterBJ40 Thank you very much for sharing this with me. I’ll check them out for sure. Best regards.

You’re very welcome. Thank you for watching.

Thank you very much. I agree with you. I wonder what could be the reason behind making chucks like that. But overall, they’re very good drills. Thank you for watching.

Mersi Amo jan.

They are a great tools to collect or to use. Maybe you can ask him to give it to you. So you can fix and restore it. Thank you for your comment and for watching.

Hi. Thank you for your comment. Now I have a better chuck and works perfect. It’s an accurate lathe. Love it.

@@VintageCraftsmanTools great! Maybe can use the other one as a spare.

Yes definitely.

Thank you very much. I appreciate it.

Thank you very much. I appreciate it.

Oh very nice. I sold mine a while ago. It was a good old small and accurate drill press. Have fun. Cheers 🍻

My neighbor gave me this one. Cleaning it up now! Since passed, I remember Bill every time I see it 👍

Hi. Unfortunately I don’t have much info, but in my opinion, replacement for the ball itself should be easy to find online. Also if you have a small broken bearings, the balls inside it might match with your anvil, depending on their sizes. Hopefully the spring inside the anvil is still there and attached.

Hi. Thank you for sharing. They are a good reliable machines. I put mine aside after I restored it due to lack of space, but I also have another craftsman which is smaller snd been using that. Now that I move to a more spacious place, I can’t wait to use it. I love the old craftsman tools. Great yet simple engineering. Thank you very much for subscribing. I appreciate it. It would be great if you share your video and its process. I always learn something new from other TH-camrs. Cheers 🍻

Thank you for your comment. I just subscribed to your channel as well. I hope you get to share your upcoming restoration with us. I still use this drill press. It’s a bit fast for the motor that I have, but man this thing can handle some rough drillings. My only issue is the bushings on the two top wheels that go under the belt, or move the belts technically. I’m thinking about upgrading it. Drill a bigger hold on the wheels and add a bearing instead of the bushings. Cheers 🍻

Thank you. Yes it is a good machine for its age. You should get one for sure. If you find one in good shape, then even better.

Thanks Kimiya jan as always. 🙏

A general all purpose grease should do the job, you can also use lithium grease as well. I got mine from Home Depot which is for high speed gears(Ultra Performance Grease). That’s good too.

That’s what I had at the time. Now I’m much more equipped. Thank you for your comment.

I’m much more equipped now. Promise.

Hello. Thank you for selling them to me with such a good price. I appreciate it. And thank you for your warm comment.

Yes. I’m glad I checked it right away. Thanks for watching.

Thank you very much for your comment. I appreciate it. You’ll love it, it is very relaxing and fun.

Thank you very much. This one was very old, and the wires were also extremely old and kind of “crispy”. I say crispy because once you moved them a bit, they’ll start to break (the wiring covers). Mine still works, but it’s good for maybe 1 hour, after that it’ll get hot. Using an oil could be another reason. In this model, you have to add oil to it every once in a while since they are supported by a brass bushings. Based on my experience, I have learned that the machines that require a constant oiling, could get hot pretty quickly after a while. I turn it on every now and then, so I can keep it operational. I have noticed that the type of oil I use has a big factor. Also what type of grease I use in the gears. But it’ll still get hot. I guess that’s how these old fans were built. I have two other smaller fans, which are less complicated but surprisingly, they work much more efficiently for longer hours than this one. Still, it’s fun to have something from the old days that is very dangerous and unsafe in today’s fan industry.

Thank you very much. Very nice, Dunlap is also one of my favorite brands. I have few tools made by Dunlap. In general these old tools are very accurate. Every old drill press that I have restored was truly zero and accurate comparing with today’s brands. What a great craftsmanship.

@@VintageCraftsmanTools My Dunlap video comes out tomorrow. It was the smaller drill press and the mechanism is very basic. It was missing the motor pulley so I had to improvise but it works fine. It has a Craftsman motor on it but the press itself is inferior to the Craftsman version.

Very nice. Can’t wait to check out your video. Keep up the good work.

Hi. Thank you and thanks for your comment. I appreciate it. You are correct, and the title was incorrect. I just fixed it. I restore tools as a relaxation hobby. It’s just fun to share thoughts and opinions in this community. I just subscribed to your channel. You have lot of cool videos and we definitely share the same interests in old tools. Keep up the good work. Cheers 🍻

@@VintageCraftsmanTools Same here. I do some out of necessity but most repairs I make are as a hobby. there's a great sense of accomplishment in making old tools useful again.

Yes I agree. We also get to have a piece of history.

Thank you very much. It’s in the video at 1:18 . If it’s hard, just apply some WD-40. You should be able to remove it easily after that. It probably has some rust inside, and it is clogged. Try to open the gap between the handle and the sleeve by a thin flat screwdriver. I hope this was helpful and also I hope you are able to remove it. Just don’t use pliers, and if you do, cover the plier’s teeth with either some cold glue or piece of cloth. (Also while pushing the sleeve up, push the direction botton (that round shape piece) down. It has to go under the sleeve in order to remove it.

@VintageCraftsmanTools Ah I see, yes I noticed the video just seemed smoother for yours but for sure I'll try the wd40😅 Thank you. Was able to remove the handle just need to clean the inside for smoother action. Again thank you!

​@VintageCraftsmanTools I was able to get it open but broke the selector putting it together 😮‍💨

@@EggyOrphan oh man, sorry to hear that. I hope you can come up with a solution to fix it. Maybe soldering it? These are rare and I truly hope you can fix it. At the end, if you couldn’t fix it, then just keep it as a collection item. I know how you feel. I have broken some rare tools in the past.

@VintageCraftsmanTools Yeah I hope so! I know I was so excited when I first bought it:/ But thank you for the reply and all, really appreciate it!
