LOL!!!!?? Three drill presses are operational:
Delta 17-950L purchased new in 2009 is in the garage
Atlas 1060 in the lathe shop in the cellar,
Craftsman 137-219001 - a little benchtop in the wood shop.
A Craftsman 101-03622? is waiting for me to put it back together - needs a motor
Another old Atlas is a basket of parts acquired cheap
Three lathes: One c 1935 Craftsman was my first one, I completed rebuilt it in 2009 and that's my working lathe. A 1970 vintage Craftsman Commercial I acquired? as a package of parts is waiting for me to assemble it. It's been waiting for 12 years. The third is a South Bend heavy 10 that was gifted to me by a machine shop that needed space for a new CNC machine. It is currently stored in a drafty but dry barn waiting for rebuild and a place to set it up- same as the Craftsman Commercial.
Three torch kits: One mini O/A kit with MC Acetylene cylinder was the first I acquired pre-2000, then I upgraded to a B cylinder because the MC runs out too fast, and as my needs for heat increased I set up a full size cart with Oxy/Propane - 150 cuft Oxy (Size S)? and an 60 pound propane cylinder. That was 12 years ago. I swap out the Oxy cylinder once or twice a year (that's about 16 times) but have not yet refilled the propane cylinder - it's about 1/4 full now. By the time it will need to be refilled it will be out of test date and cheaper to just purchase another cylinder.
Metal saws: JET 4x7 horizontal band saw
Atlas 4350 power hack saw
Wood Saws:
10" Craftsman tabletop? - a dinky thing I got at a yard sale for $30
2 Craftsman Radial Arm Saws, both acquired used, one worked for about three years and the motor died, the other needs a blade and carriage bearings
Dewalt 9" model 925H This works well, I am currently building in feed and out feed tables for it.
Planer: DeWalt DW735 relatively new
Jointer: Reliant 6" long bed
Sawmill: Woodland Mills HM130MAX (2021) 30 in x 16ft - Makes my lumber from trees on the property or logs I get from local tree service companies.
