Who needed the power assist downfeed drill press?

Someone not long ago was asking about a power assist for a downfeed for a drill press. Some sort of handicap as I recall.



I brought home an air over oil power downfeed for a drill press thats avaiable. Not cheap..but affordable

What about that air cylinder and bracket we took (hot-sawed) off my DP? It might be even more affordable.

True enough. On the other hand... The Air/Oil gizmo attaches to the quill downfeed and actually turns, rather than forces the spindle down.
