drill press table raising mechanism???
I have one of those on my craftsman drill press that a guy gave me 20
years ago. Same problem, though; I don't know who made it. Just last week the pinion gear on the acme shaft came loose though. I suppose I'll have to toss it out now. Too bad. It sure was nice while it lasted. Pete Stanaitis ---------------- Bill Noble wrote: a friend of mine has two Crafstman drill presses with 2 3/4 inch columns. He acquired from some mystery source a raising mechanism I just helped him install on one of them - I've never seen one like it snip |
