1945 Atlas Model 73 Drill Press Restoration - Final Upgrades

After some time I was able to find the final pieces I was missing to complete this great drill press restoration.
Upgrades:
Quill Guard Dust Cover
OEM Atlas Badge
Depth Stop Knurled Nut
3D Printed Slow Speed Assembly
I have to tell you it's looking really sharp now.
Especially with the ability to slow the RPM way down to 200.
Perfect for metal and larger bits.

Cool video! This is going to be a great addition to your shop!

[@SCWD_US]

It’s been a great tool!

NIce! Mine has the speed control too. I'm still around and still trying to get time to start my restoration. Life keeps happening...

[@SCWD_US]

Great! Can't wait to see it!

Where did you get the slow speed assembly?

[@SCWD_US]

Hi, thanks for the comment! I found a seller on Ebay. Unfortunately he’s no longer selling it.

[@SCWD_US]

I actually found it again, but he’s being extremely greedy on the price. I paid like $170.
