Ah, it ain’t that old unfortunately! It’s ok, but nothing special. I do a lot of metalwork, so it makes sense to have a dirty one and a clean one. The dirty one has channels in the table for coolant too, so that’s definitely staying in the metalwork shop, and if I can find a small a small radial arm drill then I’ll build a nice big table for that with a proper fence for that.
A new, cleaner drill press is high on my list. I have an old greasy one, but a decent one for woodworking is becoming necessary
Wood worker here. Clean up the old one. It will work better and last longer than any new tool.
