New Old Drill Press Purchase

I picked up a 1944 Walker Turner 15” floor model drill press last winter. I need to build a different guard for the belt now since i has to swap the 3 phase motor for a single phase.

Here is a picture of my friends Walker Turner, not sure what year but the cover should be like yours. His is 3 phase also but has a converter.
