  • This is a restoration of my grandad’s drill press/pillar drill that he purchased shortly after the war. He was a carpenter by trade and used this drill to build his own clinker boat and along with many other projects. My grandad lived in Swanage, England, and to protect the drill from the sea air, he would cover it with an oil soaked rag. As a child my dad remembers spending hours on this tool, slowly drilling. It was a rewarding experience bringing this back to life.

    Love it..❗ Drooling at the mouth, as i didn't have the money in 1966 to buy one at our local Co-Op 70km away, whilst they had a Shipment available, never to be seen again ❗😢

    Your grandfather should be honored by your loving restoration of his cherished drill press! You have not only honored the man, but his memory! You have done incredibly well!

    This was so fun to watch, and I love that you added photos of your granddad at the end and the story of the drill in the description. I recently finished restoring my own grandfather's Koken barber chair (also purchased shortly after the war) and I'm about to start editing the footage to share the process. I'll definitely be borrowing your idea and doing the same!

    You've done such a great job on the restoration of this vintage bench drill. It looks like new and the best part, usable as a drill.👍👍

    You do a great job with your restoration projects. I watched you do the plane first then the drill. I really enjoyed both of them. Keep them coming my friend.

    That's splendid! I imagine you'd love to see grandpa's face light up to see this tool looking as it does now but you certainly honoured him in grand style with the restoration. There seemed to be rather severe distortion in the music when it got loud but thankfully there isn't too much of it.
