Is that ever a sweet drill press.

Yep

Ooooooh,  I like that !  

Beautiful drill press Stan. Makes my old chinese piece of junk look like, well, an old chinese piece of junk. I bet it didn't take long to make a purchase decision on that.

Makes my old chinese piece of junk look like, well, an old chinese piece of junk.  Mine also.  It's going on Craig's List.  Fortunately I bought it from a damaged freight outfit for $75.00.  Pretty sure I can get more than that from it.

I appreciate the sentiment.

Picked up something a little different today. I plan on trying my hand at some automotive upholstery this winter, so I've been looking for an industrial sewing machine. Found one today up in Vinny's neck of the woods, at a one man upholstery shop near Lapeer. It's a Japanese knock off of a Singer walking foot machine. I tried it on two layers of 1/8" leather as well as some light weight vinyl and it handled them both with ease. Can't wait to crank out some seat covers for the Rambler. :)
