Just wondering if anyone here has heard of a Delco Bandsaw? CL near me has a 14'' Delco bandsaw listed for $100. No real information listed about it other than its in "good condition".
I can't seem to find anything about Delco - perhaps they were just reading the motor plate and it has a Delco motor? Picture below if that helps...
Any leads or information would be really appreciated!

Looks like a 14". I can't find any evidence that Delco made a BS. Might be a Delta. At any rate, you can't go wrong for One Franklin.

I would agree, that has to be a Delta and for $100 I would get. I don't think you could go wrong unless the motor is bad or something like that.

Even if the motor is bad, I'd get it, unless the rest is trashed, which I doubt.

Looks like a Reliant, or one of the other 14" taiwanese Delta clones.

Yup, if you google Reliant Band Saw, lots of discussion, reviews and photos. Photos sure look like the one on CL.
Seller has it priced about right, though you may want one with more snoose.

Once again SMC pulls thru...
it does indeed look like a Reliant. Ill post back if they ever respond to me - so far I havent heard back after requesting to go see it.
Snoose??? :confused: haha.
