Moving the Monster Drill Press

- I bought this big old Caneday Otto drill press years ago in the hopes of restoring it to working order. The odds of that happening is nearly zero, so i want to pass it on to someone who will be able to make use of it. Thanks Jim for taking the time to help move this monster drill press out of the shop.

That is so true about tread mills after the first 2 years they get forgotten.
I can certainly relate. I've got an old motorcycle in my blacksmith shop that just found a new home...or will be come Saturday. That'll free up some precious space. I've told my friends many times, "Oftentimes the most valuable thing one can make in the workshop is sqft"
Got to hand it to the craftsmen of a time gone by. Those old machines, with a reasonable amount of care, will outlast most folks' lifetimes, if you can find the parts. Where you ever able to date when it was manufactured? I can imagine it probably at least 80+ years ago, if not older.
I have a large drill press like that for 50 years, that is my main press. I like it well, it does take up a little extra space, but it's worth it. 👍
Would love to see it once restored
i had one of those old drill press..thanks.
..Black Art Forge..
I watch people stand in the worst possible places….always ask yourself what will happen if something lets go? Standing under a suspended load never a good plan. In any case glad it went well and Jim dodged another bullet. Love your content John!
Yup, never enough room for all the treasures.
Nice to see " work smarter not harder " in action
Actually, I have been out in my shed today. Trying to tidy up after 12 months of working on stuff without putting things back. Been in this house for two years, so still getting used to the space/setting up storage. Having my roof replaced soon, so I'll have plenty of second hand roof sheets to set up a small forge building. Sadly, in this part of Australia anything bigger than 3x3x3m needs a permit, which are painful to get. I'm planning to put my old caravan awning on it though, should give a bunch more under cover space when needed.
Glad you saved that press and now it's off to a good home. That off-road dolly.... I like that idea! That would have saved my bacon quite a few times over the years and I'll absolutely borrow the concept!
It made a big difference
Part one of the never ending story John , Making room . Happy to see the old drill going to a good home mate . 👍😁🤠
Wouldn’t have been any better if you hired a professional rigging crew. Great job! Bonus you have a heavy lift point there now!
Glad you had some help moving that thing and that everyone finished the job with all the toes and fingers they started with. Seems like it’s a neat bit of history, and I hope it’s restored to working order one day soon. They don’t build stuff like they used to. Can’t help but note how much the truck was squatting on the way out.
Another excellent video sir
Thanks
I am very impressed by that little Milwaukee impact driver. Take care.
Well that went smooth……glad no one got hurt with all that heavy stuff. Enjoy your day John. Now what’s the first thing that will land on that horizontal real estate. 😀
I like it when tools go to a good home, preferably mine but when theyre going to do what they do best some one else will do ...and I like the six wheel dune buggy trolly, thats a great idea, far less likely to get stuck somewhere on a ridge than a four wheeler.
PLeased it makes more room for you John and very pleased its going to be restored
Didn't realize how big the drill really was till you started lowering it. My back started aching just at the thought of lifting it. Nice to see it going to a new home, though.
that was a smooth move
Always educational to watch a couple of seasoned individuals work smarter and not harder. Also niice how that piece of 6x6 just fit between the joists with a little tap.
It helps that the framing was 6x6
@@BlackBearForge Of course (sound of palm slapping forehead)! Thx
Lol. Exercise machines in the bedroom end-up being expensive clothes racks! We've had at least three of those through the years...
Nice to see that drill press going to a person that will fix it up. A little planning makes a job like that go smooth.
For sure!
I hope your back faired out ok there John. That looked a bit awkward tryin to pull on the cart.
No problems at all.
Nice one , went well with a little planning , those endless chain hoists are so handy . I’ve seen many drills similar to that one but English designed ones seem to have the belt pulleys set horizontally with a bevel gear to the spindle . Your one has the pulleys set vertically in the same plane as the spindle , great for drilling heavy steel .
Yall made that look easy
It certainly went smoother than I expected
Great job guys. Thank you 😊
Thanks for another great video.
Ah yes. My one skill, moving heavy things around.
Good move. I hope Jim doesn't take another 10 years to do the restore.🙂🙂
Was wondering if you will be working on the cabin this spring and summer. Would like to see it finished some day. Going back to my shop and finish some shelf brackets. Stay safe.
At some point I will be getting back to work on it. We would like to see it completed as well.
👍
Love the drill, does Jim make a video of the restoration? Like to see it finished!
I don't think he does any videos
That man seems to be a mobile welder .
Hey man, what a wonderful drill press.
Of course, the space is important and a rare ressource in the Rockys.😂
But what will you do if we have no energy any more?
In good old europe the fuel cost's 2 € already...
Not a gallon. A liter.
That old drill press used 3 phase power. Much harder to run than my newer drill
This has me thinking I should replace my antique drill press. I've got a tiny shop, and a modern one would take up about half the room. Anyone in Maine interested in a 1930s Craftsman benchtop drill press?
Post your ad over at vintage machinery and someone will probably scoop it up.
@@byouman5981 Thanks for the tip!
Would have been quite a bit more of a mission without the dolly cart and the skid steer.
That's for sure
Bye Bye Drill Press
It's going to a better place, Are you going to the RMS conference this year?
Good job guys
I can see why he decided he wanted it. His choice in truck brand says “I make bad choices”
