Great photo, I have a drill press similar to that one. Nice stack of drill bits. We had the swing boom hoists similar to these in the machine shop that I worked in. Thanks Herb.

Never grow up, Rich. It's overrated. Having worked in machine shops for the first 25+ years of my days as an "adult" I would love to have that shop out behind my garage. It would make for a lot less runs to the parts shops.
