This was very informative, and I enjoyed watching it. Thanks for posting. I have a vintage drill press, a different model, but many features are similar. Thanks again!
Watched some of your other videos and they were always informative.This one is a home run because I just picked up a very old floor model and Haven't started to disassemble yet but your video has shown me a lot. Thanks much,Jim
I hope you will be replacing the spindle bearings since I have cleaned up, de-rusted and painted my DP-220 delta press. Nowit's time to replace the bearings. Looking forward to your next videos
Thirty to forty bucks? Where? All the ones of that vintage I find are around $250-$400 and that's including that model, the similar Atlas and Milwaukee models and the Walker Turner. Doesn't matter if they're floor or benchtop. The only time I see them cheaper is when they're 3 phase and I guess that's because most folks don't have 3 phase in the garage or workshop.
How is the chuck removed from the spindle on this machine? I wanted to measure the runout on the spindle separate from the chuck to decide which might be the cause of the runout on my machine. I tried using a pair of wedges but didn't have the sense that I was getting the chuck off. Thanks for these videos. Very helpful for a beginner like me.
