    Delta Drill Press Restore (need to find chuck key)

    Finally finished my restore of my Delta Drill Press 15-017. Before and After Photos posted. Any advice on where I can find a chuck key for a Supreme Chuck R15T33?

    Nice job. Does it work as good as it looks?

      I replace bearings and rewired motor so it is running great. I also found it with the 3 pulley system so its great for drilling mild steel slow...first restore for me so I'm pretty happy about it...

        Will it not take a standard chuck key that you can find at Lowes or Home Depot?

          Not sure there is just a standard key...multiple pilot sizes...think I found a Jacobs that fits though.

            Looks great. Saw a Youtube video with a guy using vinegar to clean up one.

              Hardware store will have several different size chuck keys. Nice work. I really enjoy restoring 50s era power tools.

                Nice job!!!

                I have one very similar. I need to find out what model. I can't find a chuck key either.

                  I was able to pick this one up at Ace and it fits my chuck perfect.

                    Just checked! I thought mine was a Delta. It's Buffalo 15.
