A vertical drill press is a large drilling machine that stands on a very heavy steel base. A 3" steel column extends up either about 6 feet for a floor model or 3 for a bench model. At the top of this column is an elongated box with the motor at the back, driving a shaft with a 4 tier pulley above it. The front of the box contains a hollow shaft with a spindle inside it. The spindle also has a 4 tier pulley on top. The hollow shaft can be wound up and down by the side control lever. lowering or raising the drill shaft and chuck, A belt between the 2 pulleys drives the spindle and the chuck connected to it's lower end. In the middle of the column, a table, usually about 15 " square can move up and down the column to adjust work height.
