A CL purchase. Previous owner used it for metalwork, building tool prototypes. The amount of oil and grease on this was pretty thick. Not knowing much about Walker Turner machinery, I thought the color was black, that's how much grime was on it.

When I acquired the drill press it was in working order. I went ahead and replaced all the bearings as well as stripped and painted it dark machinery gray. Should be good for another 70 years.
