- Disassemble & assemble drill press video.
I hope you find something useful from this video!
I am happy to receive your feedbacks, advices, suggestions to improve myself.
!!! I make this video for just curious & challenge, so please accept my apologies if I have made mistake in this restoration !!!
--------------Thank you so much for Likes & Comments--------------
It made me happy to see someone actually do the right thing, and replace old bearings. They're usually pretty cheap and you really never see them in the end, so why not replace them. And the fact that you went with sealed ones, I'm impressed.
I am so happy to see this comment, thank you.
I saw your video it's really good and through. I'm new to this so I got a dumb question. How do I know what size or type of bearings I need. And where can I get them from. Thank you in advance.
It's nice to see someone who actually replaces bearings in their "restoration" videos. Most just squirt some paint on the tools, but you have done it right. Thanks for posting. My little Craftsman drill press is coming apart tomorrow.
Still so many donts and whys.
This press has worked like a charm for my projects czcams.com/users/postUgkxajoEbapTfqWaadnqb04h6U576yxXp-FE . I didn't even secure it to my table top, mainly due to the fact that I was using a 15 lbs drill vise. It's not flimsy at all as to what others have claimed it to be. Make sure the locking nuts and levers are secured and there won't be any issues with light pressure and patience. I was able to drill through aluminum, plastic, and steel (steel took a while) with no problems at all. Yeah it took a little longer than a regular drill press, but I don't have the space OR the money for one.The instruction manual was worthless, but luckily assembling the press was intuitive. However, the manual would be good for ordering replacement parts if needed. There is a nice breakdown of the parts that are included in the kit. Before ordering, make sure it is compatible with your unit, it is clearly stated what models the press is compatible with.This was an excellent purchase for $40!!
My Man!!! Took the Rusty Parts off Bare Handed like a Champ!! Gloves on for the Fresh & Clean!! Piecing it back together. You Did a Great Job!! I Love Restoring old and Rusted Tools. It's like a Snickers! VERY SATISFYING!!!
Fully disassembles and reassembles massive piece of machinery and fully restores each and every part.
"Easy And Simple Restoration"
I wouldn't describe a 30 inch tall benchtop drill press as "massive", lol. He did a really thorough job on a very simple restoration.
@@Explore-Gobal no, you're 100 percent right. It's just a feat of organization. I have some organization skills but I would get overwhelmed by this many parts. I don't disagree with you though. A drill press isn't massive.
Videoing the whole process seems like a great idea - it’s the only way i would know how it all went back together again..

You've identified the trees. Keep looking and you'll find the forest.
Of all the hand tool restoration channels, I find I enjoy yours the most. There is one other guy who is (also) a true artist at this, but you seem to strike the better balance between functionality and the desire to make old things look new. After all, a tool is really meant to be used.
Thank you for a great channel!
WOW, that was an incredibly thorough overhaul and is certainly now better than new, with quality bearings and a better paint job.
I have just recieved a brand new similar chinese no name drill press yesterday and am in the process of dissmantling and improving it.
I appreciate your guide.
UK - I think these drills are all over the world. I bought a VERY similar one maybe 5 years ago for around £40, now they are over £100. One wonders why electric hand drills are at least 600W and could break your wrist when the plate for this one says 100W. Mine sits on the dining table, they make quite a good food mixer too. Very tolerant wife. - nice pancakes. Mad? I hope so.LOL
You have made a lovely job of restoration, they are a bit 'basic' but how could anyone let it get like it was. ***** young fellow.
Great restoration. No annoying music. Simple, elegant and quiet.
Wow - for starters, you are certainly humble titling this 'Easy & Simple Restoration." Yes, you didn't have to fabricate new parts, or hang from the ceiling while buffing paint, dodging arrows - I'd say this was a fairly ambitious project and you did a great job. I especially agree with comments about replacing bearings and picking period consistent colors. On the film making, I like that you used something like a green screen to keep the focus on your work, and the way you would tip the audience off on what to focus on - like showing the mallet first, or the larger drill bit against the smaller one to show you were testing a much larger bore. What would you consider a "Massive & Complex Restoration?" An old steam locomotive? And abandoned defense rocket? Ha! Very nice.
Thank you so much for your comments.
It’s nice to see a restoration from the "cheaper" side of the market. There’s many drill presses still made to the exact same template today and in my experience are more than capable of most jobs.
With the level of care and detail in this restoration I wouldn’t mind betting it’s even better than new. I would certainly be happy to buy it and use it.
A great video as always, so many other 'restorers' would benefit from watching this video.
Witam i pozdrawiam!!Bardzo dokladna z duza pomyslowoscia i dokladnoscia wykonana renowacja Wiertarki stojacej!Dobra kolorystyka!!Efekty widoczne mowia same za siebie!!Dobry pokaz filmu!!Tak trzymac!!Prima!!
I don't know why CZcams thought I wanted to watch tool restorations but, I'm so glad these types of videos started showing up in my feed.
So, will you enjoy this video?
@@gear_show hell yeah dude. I've seen a few of your vids already. Feels good watching them.
Those bearing pullers are slick! I'm preparing to do a restoration. Hope all the bearings are ok. Mine is a 1960s floor model like this. Weighs 200# lol. It's my pride and joy. Any machine you find the older the better it seems. The plant I work at is full of them. Old cast iron machines that will run another 200 years. I use vinegar all the time to remove rust. I have a $80 harbour freight ultrasonic cleaner I use it in. It works phenomenal!
My grandfather has had an identical drill for decades, the only thing that looks different is the manufacturer. Just a few hours ago I was at his house, looking at that drill and thinking about restoring it.
@FutureWinter Cox same reason why I'm watching this
Don’t hesitate, you can do it…
I have the same drill with a different brand on the faceplate, also. I do wish I had the worm gear to adjust the belt tension. I have a fastener that requires 2 wrenches to set the tension.
This was like one of those videos where they find a skinny malnourished dog in the street, inches away from death - then gently pick it up, earn it's trust and nurse it back to full health. Watching this was JUST like that - nice restoration!!
I have inherited a drill press almost exactly the same as this one. It dates from around the mid 1970's I think and made for Ryobi. Thanks for putting up this video, I now know how to disassemble and restore mine too!
Perfect little drill press for the fantasy workshop. Excellent work!
Yes, it is. Now it stays in my brother's workshop.
Another beautiful object subtracted front the trash. Fantastic restoration.
Anyone else or is it just me that fimds these resto vids quite relaxing to watch?
Makes you want to go to craigslist and buy an old drill press and restore it yourself lol...
Thank s for the vid. Very nicely done.
From forgotten and neglected to loved and shining. Wonderful work.
The actual manufacturer of this drill press must be the same as the one I have. Mine is branded Value Craft model 8050 and I have been looking for a resource for chuck replacement. Since the arbor and spindle are one part, I've been struggling to find anything. This video gave me exactly what I needed! Thank you!!!
Bro. I like your video so much because it's very simple and detailed!!! Thank you so much!!!
Glad you liked it!
I have one of these at home in cruddy shape (belonged to an uncle who's long retired now). I am going to make this a project. Thanks so much for this video. You make it look easy lol.
Hi from England
You've clearly worked as a fitter...or in some similar capacity somewhere as your demonstrating strip & assembly skills that we're not seeing from some of the others carrying out "restorations" in here...
I'm an electrician myself...but I've worked in various engineering environments all my working life...
A service/freshen up to a good standard here.. 👍
Hi from Gear Show
I am so happy and get more confident on myself after read your comment. I will continue to improve myself. Anyway thank you so much for away watch my videos and give me some feedbacks and suggestions.
This is like peaceful meditation of mind. Thank you man, this is much appreciated.
I agreed your reflection is an exactly expression from taoism philosophy
Great work! I think that revive some old machine is better than pay some new without ani precision!! Thank you to show me how the drill press is made!!
Just replaced my 1983 chinese kff-6 with a new drill just like this one but with a light for 54$ after coupon at harbor freight(15$ off with google search giving me a coupon). That said I love your restoration video, I know my new one will wear out, and it's nice seeing a rebuild is simple. To be be honest your rebuild was way over done. The electric motor side bearings should last a damn near lifetime. But it was nice seeing it all being simple and easy to service
My wife is from the Philippines they make almost anything you can think of from re-bar a boat anchor comes to mind, as well as a frame for a motorcycle sidecar to convert a motorcycle into a 3 wheel taxi.
Great restoration. I'm just restoring an almost identical drill press, so this video is particularly useful. Was not aware of angle grider buffing pads, so will be adding them to my shopping list. Thanks
forgot to ask. Was that a piece of webbing belt you use as a soft jaw?
This Chineseium drill press has been made for many years. I have one from HFT that has a work light on a goose neck.
Wow, need to soak that column in Evaporust or Naval jelly over night.
Gracias por tan ilustrativa reatauración, cuando hay otros que lo ven cómo tiempo perdido. Me ayudaste a ver como está construido y darme cuenta si puedo hacer alguna modificación en la flecha para que baje más de 2" a 3 hasta 5 pulgadas, asi que a maquinar piezas ,,, muy bro!!. Eres de los mios , que aprovechamos lo existente , para restaurar y mejoras aparatos , semi industriales y ser capaces de llevarlos a nivel profesional.... excelente
I just restored the same drill in December. It is very satisfying to see how easy it is.
Back in the 60s we kids used to watch our father using his drill press but the difference being his press had a steel counterweight on the top and a geared handle to turn on the side. He always did some great jobs on that drill press.
Watching you makes me want to outfit my shop entirely with old restorations. I guess I better start looking for buys
Wow. Quite a restoration there. Mine is basically the same but you've given me some view of what's causing my drill shaft to wobble slightly and now i know it's the lug screw on the right hand side, i might be able to put it right.. thank you for posting this video mate
great job, enjoy watching all your resto vids.. i have some old tools and equipment in a shop that l am rebuilding going to try some of these, worse comes to worse it doesnt run anyway and replace. To all the Negative comments.. Hey you guys post your videos on restoring something like this . go ahead lets see them .
Yes thanks i did find some useful things in this video that I had not seen before. Also, I have a very similar drill press which I restored functionally. Now i am tempted to give it the full treatment. I shimmed the pulley guard up a little to get rid of that annoying rattle, which on my drill press was caused by the pulleys catching the inside of the guard.
These are machines that build the world!
The Jacob's chuck and the post were my favorite parts. By far. Awesome.
The good old machine has regained the shine, the beauty, to work well. Nice video.
I just binged watch all your videos they were great. It reminds me of some meditations I have done in the past. The title of your videos should be: Zen and Restoration. The act of restoring everyday items.
За работой приятно наблюдать, и результат отличный. А от деревянного молоточка для тонкой настройки вообще заторчал)
Wow! Truly a masterclass. I'll surely come back to this video once I muster enough balls to replace the chuck on mine. I have an almost identical one (Chinese "put your brand here")
Cheers
Glad it helped
To clean the rust, you can also use products to clean the limestone, such as anti-limestone acids. The results are much more satisfying. thanks for the video tutorial.
Gracias por el tutorial. exelente trabajo. Hay que tener respeto por las herramientas de trabajo, son el reflejo de un buen artesano maestro
Nice work. There a lot of old neglected drills that can be brought back for the cost of a few new bearings and a little time. A couple of years ago, I went through a cast off drill similar to this one, and put it back into service with upgraded bearings, trued the spindle, and it's better than new.
I LOVE seeing shiny stuff!
This is a genius restoration sir! Better when it came out of the factory.
Отличная работа, он такой с завода не был!)
Thank you!
ааа.. ты тоже этим потихоньку занимаешься, т.е. реставрацией...
Ну и я бы таким занимался, но места нету для этого. Потому делаю только пишущие машины и их потом продаю
Immaculate restoration job! Very satisfying to watch!
Thank you for watching.
Wow! Awesome tear down and rebuild! Probably better than new!
Thank you so much!
Definitely outshines a new one...
Good job. Really satisfying video to watch. Now I want a big wooden mallet!
Beautiful restoration. I've restored old neglected machines as well and its always satisfying.
Now it does small holes AND big holes! How fascinating! :-))
Great video - really nice restoration. I much prefer locktite to grease on bolts as it secures it better and can still be removed. When drilling use cutting (light) oil as it lubricates the drill bit to reduce friction and makes it drill easier and reduce heat, both desirable.
I don't know how I missed this restoration last year, but it was very well done. Keep up the fine work, Rog
Oh really! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Buenos Días, Excelente Trabajo de Restauración.
A very beautiful work, thanks for sharing. I have a very similar drill press and I have never had bravery enough to start the restoration...maybe, now, I can start using your perfect job as example.
Excellent work.. Only you need to put some drops of oil to the point of drilling on metals in order to prevent the bit from overheating.. Very well done!
Thank you!
Looks better than the new one from store
Good work! I have the same machine from a Chinese manufacturer and last time the bearings were not changed by me, but I have to do that in the near future ... Thumb up!
I could watch that all day
It's the best video, everything is shown from start to finish thanks you
You're welcome!
This looks like the exact same drill press that I picked up for free when someone was throwing it out. Works fine but looks all rusty. I may have to follow your lead here and 'restore' it.
Oh really good, nice to hear that.
Yeah. It would have been even better if he would have installed them properly, not hammering onto the outer ring, instantly killing them.
похоже, техника запрессовки патрона немного подвела. киянкой, да еще и по кулачкам, результат заметен на 17:59, что ненормально даже для бюджетных моделей. в остальном реставрация 10/10, выглядит свежо и современно
Excellent! Your work will help me restore my drill press. Congratulations and thank you.
I wouldn't want to use it after all that work and seeing how nice it works.
HEY! I just realised that this is a Rexon drill press, I've got one from my father because they were going to throw that and a grinding stone at the landfill...
My Rexon 250 something got a wheel middle for even more "gears" just need to get an electrician to connect the power, emergency stop and some more stuff before it's ready to do some hole.
Mine is the floor standing model, but I do remember that I've seen in on a bench too.
very impresive restoration of a drill press!
but most important, i believe, is when some one like you, with your skills, takes pride and demonstrate to the world that there are lots of art involved in any mechanical field as longer you put all your heart & effort on what you do to make it happen
by the way, this is a steal lol
thank you for this great video bro
Thanks for sharing. 👏👏👏Over the top🎩 transformation. You need an Ultrasonic Cleaner... would make your resto's so much easier for you. Best to you and yours
Very good idea to change all the bearings. Good job!
To take something "dead" like this and give it new life may be the closest thing to giving birth for a man. Excellent job!
it's always nice to see drills dancing chuck to chuck.
बहुत बहुत धन्यवाद आपको मेने मशीन खोलकर रिपेरिग कर रहा था
Шикарная работа ! Молодец !!!
Awesome resto!
How good is to have the right tools... Great job.
Amazing! Good job. How you remember to put them back together escapes me though.
Every parts is connected logically, you should remember this point.
Excelente Trabajo mi amigo!!!... Te Saludo desde Venezuela!!!
I like those pulleys. You can put the belt where you want it, depending on what speed and torque you need.
The music was a nice touch
Very well done. I have an old Delta about the same size and configuration that I plan on rebuilding. Luckily mine doesn't have all that rust to contend with.
You did a fantastic job restoring that. That type of commitment to the details is why I subscribed and watch your channel.
Wow, I am so happy to see this comment, anyway thank you!
My little brother did the very first part on his brand new dirt bike when we were kids. We rode without him for a long time. I finally gave him my bigger dirt bike when he was old enough to promise not to disassemble it.
Fantastic , job well done
Very good restoration, I am almost like new, greetings and thanks from Neza Land City Mexico
Brilliant, I would have bought that from you had I not bought the one I have now!
Haha, thank you :D
Wow! That is just so satisfying. Thanks you. Well done.
You're welcome.
Very good job mate.....looks like new now
That's a great looking drill press. Outstanding job
Thank you so much!
I picked up an exact copy of this drill press yesterday. Such a great coincidence that you published this video today. I'm not sure about the condition of the machine, I've never disassembled anything like this and am not sure if I'd be able to reassemble it again.
Great video, keep it up!
I am so happy that this video can help you. Yes it is a really great coincidence, I got this drill 2 months ago.
Don't forget to grease the spindle assembly excessively if you reassemble the drill press, it will help getting rid of rattling. Try to avoid hitting the chuck with hammers.
La verdad amigo que este fue sos restauración que más me gusto
Exelente restauración amigo!!! Saludos cordiales desde Reynosa Tamaulipas México!!!
Thanks for showing how to remove the chuck .
Parabéns. Seus vídeos são ótimos e relaxante ! :)
Congratulations. Your videos are great and relaxing! :)
Thank you so much!
It's funny... I have a 1959 Thunderbird sitting in my driveway waiting to be restored and I'm not the least bit worried about it. But I'd rather buy a new drill press than tear into one like this. Great job.
Next you restore your own workshop drill, it looks as the one you restored it. Very interesting videos, keep up the good work.
Enjoyed watching this you made it all look so easy, hope to watch more of your video's thank you.
