Used old scrap channel iron to put casters on 120 plus year old Champion Blower Camelback Drill press. Next item of business is to pull the 1 hp Repulsion induction motor off and get it back to running. Just the motor weighs 150 lbs. "When Cast-iron was King" Enjoy

I have a similar drill, made by Canedy Otto, it has a 21" swing and #4 MT spindle, and was built with an original electric motot to one side of the base, built in 1947. It will drill a 1 1/4" hole in steel with power feed without any pilot hole.
