[TheForge] More Drill Press stuff

[Woolley]

Hello,

I 6sm at comcast.netdropped in on a local machinist I know who is winding 
down to see if he was ready to sell any of his drilling machines. Last 
time I asked he wasn't. Anyway he has a two spindle Rockwell setup with 
an unslotted table, single phase, working, with Jacobs chucks, probably 
around a 1960 or so vintage that is unused ,both motors power up etc. 
Nice. The machines are belt drive multispeed down to 330/500 depending 
on the RPM of the motor (which I couldn't see).  The HP of the motors 
are 3/4.  My question, does anyone know the capacity of the machines 
based on this info.  5/8, 3/4 holes? He wanted me to make an offer, 
("what will you give me for that Rockwell"?) but I left it  up to him to 
come up with a price. Any help appreciated.

Regards,
Bill Woolley
