I've been looking to upgrade from my crummy drill press for a while now, and the Redmond sale made it happen for me. Drove down to the freight depot today and picked it up.

General 34-01
64292

I love the switch design. Very old school.
64293

I did not know that they came standard with Baldor motors (of course now I will probably want Baldors on all my machinery)
64294

I didn't get the focal point right on this pic but they ship with a Jacobs 34-33c

I bought it from the Redmond Machinery sale. They are in Atlanta and freight shipped it to Scranton (nearest truck depot) for me. I have a large utility trailer so no problem.




Congratulations fellow Binghamtonian!

I Love the flag :D

Here in Canada, anyone want this flag on his machines, but the price is very high.

Nice drill. Cdn price shown. The US price is $1499 I believe. I looked it up to see if the switch was from the factory - and it is!!

Congratulations on the purchase of a VERY nice machine ( I am very happy with my General 350 cabsaw).

I'm not telling what I paid for it, but if I did you would all tell me that I suck :D
