Champion Blower and Forge Drill Press

[Stan R]

Anyone know anything about this old drill press. Can't decide if I want to sell or rebuild

[Guerrero88]

I had one . My neighbor gave it to me. Son let me tell you that thing would drill anything. Actually was afraid one day it would break my arm. Lol!!! Passed it along to my brother. He has it in his shop. Uses it all the time. Dang good press.

Refurbish, probably more solid than what you can buy today.

If you need a drill press I would fix /restore it, probably outlast the one you could buy with the money it cost to restore it

If I had a shop built I would say put me in line if you sold it

Yes sir, I have one like that and it's a lot more sturdy and ridged than the two newer ones I have.

[Gummi Bear]

Definitely keep it.

Nothing you can buy today will be as well built as that one is.

If need be, you can get the motor rewound (any good electric motor shop can do that)

Solid tool

That thing is awesome! I love the speed adjustment.

We have decided to restore.... :-) Another project....

[bwssr]

if it runs, you can store it at my place....

[cj7zrcool]

I'll take it. How would you like to be paid?

[GrapeApe]

That's some nice old American iron. Restore that beauty!!!

We have to get the electric motor re done..

Then find the original colors. I think black

These guys look like they can get ya fixed up

They can probably find you a modern motor with the same frame, but I would want the original rewound, it looks right, and belongs on there.

[Hoggslayer]

I'd sell it to me.
