So, I have this ancient Millers Falls drill press, which is overbuilt by a factor of about 1,000. I had a buddy help me move it, and he asked if he could borrow it, because he needed to take core samples of the Earth's crust. Hardy har har. Anyway, the drill is removable, leaving you with just a big press. The drill mount is also removable, which gives you a nice flat sturdy spot to bolt on whatever you want. I was thinking about disassembling it all, and making it into the leather press I need, but this thing is so beefy, I think I'm just going to chuck the leather cutting die right up in the drill, and go to town. :) |

That drill looks very similar to the old Wolf Drills? Bry |

It's got a Millers Falls label on it, but I couldn't find it in any of their catalogs. I think they made some stuff for Craftsmen, so it might be one of those. |
