I recently was given this early 1960’s Delta drill press by a good friend who was moving and needed to dispose of some tools. I’m keeping this unit and selling my other drill press, the Delta 15-017, discussed on this blog in an earlier post.
Though the 15-017 is in better shape than this new unit, the new press is a higher end model with variable speed and an easily adjusted (vertically) table. Other than that, they are very similar machines.
In the photo below, you can see the original drill press in the background to the right, which will now go on Craig’s List.
