Reviving an old thread I stumbled upon.
The best tool I ever bought, well technically, my Dad bought it for me and I worked to pay for it. Old Mr. Feoretti who lived across the street from us when I was a kid was having a garage sale, and one of the items was a Rockwell Homecraft drill press. It was my first experience in bargaining, and I got it for eight dollars; that was in 1962, and I worked all summer on the housing tract with my Dad to pay him back.
I still have the drill press, and it has functioned faithfully for me throughout my life; what more could anyone ask.
