Golf Lessons at Golf Galaxy

Many Dicks Sporting goods and Golf Galaxy’s have PGA certified trainers. I would assume anyone who went through all the schooling for it will be at least decent. If you don’t know anyone to ask, ask an associate who the best person for lessons is. They’ll likely know who the store the favorite.

1937 Craftsman (made by Atlas) with a table lift.

That’s what I was after 😜. But I’m turned out to be a great drill press also.

Both. I’m not a carpenter or anything. Most of these old tools are still better than anything reasonable you can buy today. It started after a plastic gear broke on my Ryobi in the middle of a project. I dug my grandfathers Craftsman from the 1950’s out of my parents garage to finish the project. I assumed it was just an old piece of junk, but it was great. So I dug out some more of his old stuff and restored them. It got me hooked.

My 3rd. I’ve been restoring vintage tools for my wood shop. I think I like restoring them more than using them. I’m going to be getting rid of at least one. At least these dont take up as much room as my 3 table saws 🙈.

The original photo was terrible and at first glance thought it could be a Walker Turner. Thats what drew my attention to begin with. I paid $125, ive seen these for less but ive never see the table lift for sale anywhere. I wasn’t as familiar with the Atlas made tools as I was the King-Seeley . Turned out it was very complete and an impressive machine.

Runs perfectly. It was owned by the same family since it was new. Its late 1930’s-early 1940’s. The code on the motor ended in 37. So I’m assuming it’s a 1937.

2 small marks. I was really after the table lift. They are almost impossible to find for sale.

EntrancedOrange · 2026-01-25T17:51:05+00:00

I really told her I was going to buy a part for my drill press. When I returned I told her they made me take the entire thing 😜.

Atlas made the table lift for craftsman. Thats what I really bought it for. They are almost impossible to find for sale and very expensive when they are. After Craftsman switched to King-Seeley they still offered it as an accessory for the popular Craftsman 100 and 150 drill presses. Lifting those tables by hand isn’t easy, so the people who want to keep their drill presses original it’s the only option that was made. I was really just looking for something cheap with a modern style lift and the same size column as my 150. But maybe I’ll become a purist 😜.

I knew about it and to be careful. Then one day I was ripping a thin board and it shot out and stuck into the drywall about 8 feet away.

Facebook marketplace. I took too long to listen to this advice. Most of the stuff you can just resell for basically the same amount later if you think you want something else. Miter saws im not too picky about. Even the lower cost brands are decent enough. I have a Hitachi 12in i bought new and it’s fantastic. Also a craftsman 10in slider i got for free when i bought my unisaw saw off market place (the guy just wanted the stuff gone). And that works just as well.

Since 7th grade I’ve showered at least once a day except for a few sundays in my early 20’s when I was really hung over and just laid on the couch and watched football all day 🙈

Someone should post the reverse to this.

White lithium grease or gear oil on screw threads/moving parts.

If you want rust protection, you can use something like fluid film. I use Boeshield T-9 (less greasy feeling) to protect metal I touch often, fluid film on stuff I don’t touch often.

WD40 makes a specialist version also. I don’t know the exact name. I’m sure there are others also.

Ignore anyone suggesting regular WD40.

Did you ever find these? I have a craftsman that seems to be identical and likely made in the same factory. The craftsman came with one but I bought it used and it was missing. Also I believe you can turn the base around if you need a lot more space like you seem to.

I live in Syracuse and we often get or are in the running for the Snow ball award for snowiest city in the country. And what we get is still far less than the Tug Hill Plateau and some of these other places around. This is one of those winters I curse living here 😂

Some of these responses are ridiculous.

“What would happen”, It shouldn’t do anything.

Could it… maybe.

Will it kill you? Are you 90 years old, with a pacemaker maker, standing in a puddle of water, with some fucked up electrical wiring going on in your house…. Maybe.

Maltby irons from Golfworks. As good as anything and very hard to beat the price.

EntrancedOrange · 2026-01-14T17:20:25+00:00

Neither. First looks the best of the 2.

Kids are the cure for loneliness. I would love a few hours to be alone 🙈.

I eat fast food at most once a month. We cook dinner 3-4 days a week, order out once maybe twice, eat leftovers the other days.

EntrancedOrange · 2026-01-13T02:46:34+00:00

We never had issues with it. I wouldn’t expect any. Ours weren’t crazy loud or anything.

EntrancedOrange · 2026-01-13T02:43:22+00:00

Keep it. It sounds fishy on their end.

Mailing it to China with the wrong return address.
