After saving up for 6-7 years for a new bandsaw, I finally got a new drill press.
Last year my 50 year old drill press came up limp (Rockwell/Delta) and it cost to much to replace the parts... less expensive in the long run to get a new drill press. At least that is my excuse... But... I had to take my band-saw money to do it. Right now, a drill press for making pens and bowls is more important. So... the savings account for the band saw is starting over... Now, what to do with an old drill press... working, just needs spindle bearings.
