Reply:Few more. The metal file in the middle holds drill chucks, taper sleeves and the bits in the last shot.

Reply:I got this at a yard sale 'bout 25 years ago, sign said 'heavy drill press'. its a18" vert & horizontal 'Rusnok'  mill from WWII. The horizontal dosent work, no motor (in the base). This sucker weighs close to a ton, seriously. The base was manufactured by Singer Sewing Mach Co. 4 speeds by changing belt on pulleys. Tooling mounts in collets, it came with a bunch of 'em. 1/2" is largest. I paid $150.00 for it. -corne-Thats the original light! Attached Images

Reply:This is what I've done so far.  I am going to redo the mill cart like the lathe cart where all the tooling is visible and easy to grab.  The lathe cart hasn't been painted since I figure I will want to add more after I use it a while longer. Attached Images
