And two weeks later… this 1946 Delta slow speed 17” drill press founds its way home. Single phase, 3/4hp. Weighs close to 400 pounds. Well taken care of. Clean up and possibly but remotely, bearing replacement … …. Clean up begins.
I am now educating myself about Induction Repulsion motors. Always something to learn. For a 77 year old motor it hums perfectly.
Fella was cleaning out his Granddads machine shop. If someone is looking for an outstanding Bridgeport and table tops of cutters and accessories…. He has one and is needing to sell before the house is sold, garage torn down and converted to industrial zoning. But I digress at the risk of another culling. this DP runs fine as-is. Feel very fortunate.
