View Full Version : Drill Press
Just got a Handee drill press,made by
Chicago Wheel & Mfg Co. It's not all their!
Looks to have some type of collet chucking

I have a very old drill press circa 1940. This drill press had a collet system that worked in the morse taper socket. The main body is a #3 morse which is split in two pieces and accepts a collet which is sized to take collets for drills with no tapered shank. Does this sound similar?
