Hamilton Sensitive Drill Press Restoration

Looks like you've got a bit of work ahead of you, but it should clean up nicely!
 
Plenty of drill presses move the whole head for adjustment. If its a gang or bench mount its usually the only way as the table is the base. Some are counterweighted or they will use a screw like this one. That's about the only thing on this machine I would actually consider normal.

Agreed, but I'm diving in!

The thread could probably use a title change. Anyone know if that's possible?

You are correct, we just need a conversation to know what you want to change it to and can even put in a proper section.
 
Thanks! I actually had other tools that i planned to work on first but somehow this one got bumped in front. Never tore one down this far before so I hoping I can get it back together correctly. :D
