I snagged a perfect, never used Rockwell 32 inch radial drill press!!! Made inPittsburg,PA.-- you should see this guy--the fit and finish on the steel looks like a fine rifle. BUT-- its a morse taper. I cannot afford a 600 dollar American made Palmgren 3" X-Y Axis vise. - better off buying a good used milling rig. - I had to settle with the 90 dollar C-V 30 3"- yea,the acme screws are gonna have back lash-I will have to disassemble and clean-rework this X-Y Axis vise.- Yes, I know full well what can happen with a morse taper drill press. It can fu#& you up real quick!! This will be used ONLY on plastic.- nylon- teflon.- This Palmgren is free shipping- its on its way here from Ill.- should be here in Pilot rock Or, on the 16-18 th. -- Wear head-eye protection- keep the rpm-s down- feed slowly-
