Such a beautiful design. It's sad that that aspect of machine making has all but disappeared.

You must be doing something right to get all those goodies at once. Enjoy.
Two years ago when I first started looking, I wouldn't have had the money to buy all three like this. I could've found a drill press, but the Oliver 192 and the GWI were not to be found. I decided to buy new and save first. Once I had enough to buy a new bandsaw, drill press and a guided saw system, I started looking at new models. Them, boom, all the vintage models I was looking for became available.
My dad use to always say "it's better to be lucky than to be good." I most definitely fit the former at this point.
