Drill press

[Richard Oliver Snelson]

Sorry Ron, I don't know. Mine is the standard bench model Delta.

I have the Jet mortising drill on a heavy steel plate that is hinged to 
raise and lower up to 10 degrees. By reversing the drill it extends out from 
the base and can easily reach the full block area in its pivot. I don't have 
it on any sort of air float, but that could be easily done.
I found an extension chuck and arbor that extends out from the internal 
chuck on the mortising drill. Neat little rig.
