Fobco Star Pillar Drill. Really fantastic condition - paintwork is original, still has decals in place. Even the original Fobco branded belt. Couple of marks in the table, but not the arc of shame like so many have. Table moves freely on the column, as does the motor mounting bracket for changing belt speeds.
When I got it the Bakelite on/off switch was missing so I've made a knurled aluminium replacement. It does have a decent quality chuck guard that I will supply with it - I know a lot of people don't like them though so I didn't fit it for the pictures.
Motor is 415v, all works perfectly. If you wanted to swap motor for a single phase, it's a very easy conversion as the switch is mechanical - no contactors or NVR switches to rewire.
Collection only from South Leicestershire due to size and weight, but I'm happy to help you load it.
£250
