Everything is back together and working great once again. All the rust is gone-ish. I decided not to do any painting at this time and left everything original. A coat of Johnson's paste wax is on the steel/metal surfaces to help prevent any additional rust. Project came out really nice, especially compared to when I first saw the drill press in an old warehouse. A second life and looks (and runs) great. I also mounted it in a mobile stand to move around the garage much easier.
