Title: Made in the USA
Post by: IRON MAN on March 09, 2018, 03:27:34 PM
Bought a family owned vintage Sears & Roebuck free standing drill press manufactured in 1978 in the USA. Weighs about 135 lbs. Had to take it apart to move it. Runs well and in great condition. Needed to drill through 1/4" or more. Hand held drill doesn't cut it (no pun intended).

I like Sears and Roebuck products.  That will last a long time.
