Got it!

I WD40ed and LiquidWrenched in the allen keyhole. After about an hour it slowly moved and then pulled off. The pix helped since I did not know what was under it. Looks like a Jacobs 33b chuck or or something like that may made in Conn.?

Can't Get Drill Chuck off 10e - Advice Please

On my "new" 10e I loosened up the allen screw on the adaptor above the drill chuck and tried to get it to slide off the shaft - taking the drill chuck with it. I even tapped it lightly with a hammer. Nothing. Am I missing something that is holding the adaptor/chuck in place? Any suggestions of how ...

Feed Knobs

From whom????

Tom at:

https://sites.google.com/site/hogwinslowwoodworking/home

I had him make them a bit longer than the standard feed knobs since it will be a dedicated drill press. He charged $22.50 with shipping for the 3 knobs - he did not charge any extra to make them a bit longer. He ...

Base

I took and old base I built and shorted it and beefed it up a bit to mount the 10E on. Ordered 3 new feed levers - the one on the machine was broken so I had to find a replacement.

Thanks

I have a small lathe so I am good to go that way. My drill press is an old craftsman and it is fair - I thought the 10ER would make a great drill press with that big table that tilts and has a fence.

Any instruction or videos (youtube or vimeo etc) on how to get the quill out and check that over ...

Okay - I did it - bought a 10er off CLs need advice

I bought a 10er off craigslist for $75. It is in fair condition I would say.

Got soaked in the down pour that happened just as I tried to get it in my SUV. I will check it out in more detail tomorrow after work when it is light out. However, I know I need the following:

1.) The quill lever is ...

Dedicated Drill Press - 10ER or Mark 5??? Advice Please

I have mostly stand alone tools - TS/Lathe,SS planer, jointer, miter saw, BS (old general CA). I picked up a old Mark 5 in fair condition about a year ago and made it into a mini set up as a dedicated disk sander. I love the big table and variable speed.

Now I am thinking about a 2nd SS to use as ...

Art. Thanks. That is good information. I know they make a 3 and I 1 wheel. I was hoping to use the 3 but that is not possible. I while back I took an old grinding arbor (I mean old - brass bushings no bearings) cleaned it up - and picked up a very nice 1/2 hp 1725 motor of C/L ($20) and made an 8 ...

I would like to cut off as much as I can and still have a good 12" sander with the table, and retain the ability to horizonatally bore. I wonder if I could put one of those short beal buffing systems on the lathe setup if I cut it down as much as possible?

Cut Tubes - Sander and Horizontal Boring Only

I am new here. I have a small shop 12x20 but a bunch of equipment - small cabinet saw, band saw, lathe drill press, planer, router table, etc. I bought all of it used off C/L at good prices.

Anyway I saw a 1958 Model 500 SS on C/L - It runs but has been repainted and needs a little cleanup ...
