Here is one the nicest examples you will ever find of the Dunlap/Sears (made by King-Seeley corp of Ypsilanti Michigan) bench top drill press model 103. This was meticulously restored to better than new condition and is leagues ahead of anything available in todays market in terms of quality and utility. All castings have been re-painted. All unpainted metal has been polished. Equipped with adjustable table, adjustable depth stop, Jacobs drill chuck, and matching Dunlap motor. . These don't come along very often in this condition. Given its weight, this will be for local pickup only: greater Hartford Connecticut area. If interested, PM me and I can supply more pictures. SOLD

That looks like the one my father had when I grew up.

Phil and I are neighbors and it seems like we’ve been trading tools for a few years now. I am trying hard to resist this drill press as it is a beauty! It runs like a Swiss watch!
Hope someone snags it before I break down!

I have a Craftsman branded one just like it; just not as well restored. A beautiful piece, absolutely stunning.....
