Hi,

I have recently acquired an old bench Drill and cannot seem to find any information about it.

I'm familiar with the Elliott Progress drills but this has no Elliott markings anywhere just the name plate shown.

Has anyone here ever seen one before or have any information on it. I will be restoring it over the next few weeks.

Adam,

This thread, on another forum, looks encouraging
