Restoring a Wonderful Old Drill Press! Worth it? or should’ve bought new?

My Brass Hammer Waitlist: It took a while to get around to restoring this drill press but it was definitely worth the wait. Now I just need to make a stand for it and maybe a vintage style control box. Just to add some more info: Paid $200 for the drill press, the VFD was $90, bearings and belt $125 and the paint $40. A new Brobo Walden drill press can be found here for comparison They’re not exactly the same but they are very similar. As always I’m happy to answer any questions.
