    You could always buy it, then sell it on e-bay as Abraham Lincoln's first drill press.

      good candidate for owwm

      If the column is not rusted through (just surface) then it would be worth the $60, as it has the speed reducer (metal work), that are not as common as I would like. The motor can be replaced, and it is a better buy then a lot of the cheap junk out there today.

        Maybe "some paint" would have been a better description!

          I dunno, it might be a good project for somebody to restore it.

            A scotch brite pad would clean a lot of that up, and if there is no play in the quill I might offer fifty.
