Craftsman 15½" Drill Press 113.21371 – Belt Drive, Lighted, Adjustable Table
This vintage Craftsman 15½" floor-standing drill press, model 113.21371, is a reliable American-made machine produced by Sears, Roebuck and Co. during the mid-to-late 20th century. Powered by a ½ HP, 1725 RPM capacitor-start motor (model 113.12550), this belt-driven press delivers steady torque across a 12-speed range from 380 to 8550 RPM—ideal for materials ranging from wood and plastic to cast iron and stainless steel.
Built with heavy cast iron components and a steel column, this model features an adjustable-height table, built-in work light, and integrated reference charts for spindle speeds and tap drill sizes. A clearly labeled pulley speed chart aids in fast setup for each material and bit size. The machine includes its original chuck key and operates with a standard 115V power supply. The drill press stands out for its durability, precision, and straightforward mechanics, making it a dependable choice for both home workshops and restoration collectors.\
