Antique Machinery - the Camelback Upright Drill Press

Thanks to a friend of mine that picked up one of these, I'm now obsessed with yet another early piece of machinery...

...the "camelback" style drill press, or upright drill.  Real early turn of the century equipment has always been beautiful to me, despite what it takes to restore early equipment and the shear size of the footprint.  And yet, I need a drill press...

holy crap, I have one of these in my shop - where did you get all of the photos? when I got mine 15 years ago, there was scant little data on the internet about them...
