About a month ago I picked up a nice original 15" Walker Turner drill press. With the help of the folks over at OWWM.org , they figured out it was made in 1935.

I just got a correct vintage motor for it and ran it last night for the first time.





I still have to replace the original cord and possibly the on/off switch as it has to be in a specific position to work. It runs pretty quietly and I'm pretty happy with it.
