Recently someone posted a modern drill press…got me thinkin’ about the model of my old one that I made for a blacksmith shop scene in '02…it was revisited after the implementation of edge split…again after “merge” (the gears were rudely "spin Dup"ed and quite messy)…and now rendered with Cycles…will put it on Blendswap soon…if anybody wants it (it has 180 frame rotation anim)…'tis a beautiful thing and still works great (far better than the arm that cranks it) …take care.
Modeling looks great! Makes me want one for my shop.
Roy Underhill would be proud… lol, great job.
now someone needs to model the tried and true Bridgeport. 
Nice model
