Woodshop Junkies | Better Than New! 60 Year Old Drill Restored @WoodshopJunkies | Uploaded October 2022 | Updated October 2024, 3 days ago.
The latest vintage woodworking machine to find its way into my shop is a Fobco Star Drilling and Milling Machine.
I don't think this drill has been used in about 20 years. The electrics are shot and the chuck is seized. Before I can commit to this resto I need to make sure it is repairable.

I am really enjoying these restorations so let me know if you want to see more of them and I will try and fit in the odd restoration video.
