Thread: High speed Waldown?

Happy to buy at that price but there is a small matter of picking it up and getting it here. Local pick up makes things easier for the seller but really cuts down on the potential market.

A lot of sellers put themselves out of a sale that way…. You ask about delivery and they say as long as you organise it. But don't even give you dimensions or weight or any useful info so you could if you wanted to.

I did see it. This is a high speed drill, and as such probably not too useful to most people. And those few that really would have a need for a high speed drill, do not like to see too much rust on what are supposed to be precision parts spinning at 20krpm. That IMHO why there were no bids despite the very low $150 asking.

I have owned one of these Waldowns and they are a very good machine but are very limited in versatility.
From memory, they have a small precision chuck that I think takes max 1/4 or maybe 5/16 and a very small throat. A great drill if you are drilling lots of very small holes and require the high rpm's.
