Back about 1978, dad sent me and my brother to one of those traveling tool sales in Houston to buy two drill presses. We came home with the two, both the same model, a floor model, both had No. 2MT spindle taper with a drill chuck. All made in Taiwan. Tables were not flat on either one. And one had the slot for driving out the MT drill chuck and the other did not. Who ever has it now, it's probably still like that today.
