I found a drill press like this one, except the one I saw is a bench-top one:

No other info available, like model number. I think it might be 103.0305. Based on my cursory research, It seems it was built from 1942-43. The "Mohawk" on top was to cover the quill, I think.
1. Are parts available?
2. Is this worth anything?
3.
The table is pretty beat up; what's the best way to fill the holes? Solder/welding? Epoxy/JB Weld?
4. Anyone have one of these? Is it a good machine?


Thanks!
