I just finished the cleanup of my Delta model 34-350 12"-14" table saw. The saw originally came out of the Seattle School system. It was in decent shape for a school saw, but the arbor bearings were shot (rumbled). I changed both the arbor and motor bearings (original 3 phase, 5HP, 208 volt Delta/Baldor motor), repainted the tub and accessories, cleaned up everything else, and installed a TECO VFD. It seems to work fine. I got it running Thursday, got everything adjusted and wired the remote switch Saturday, and cut some wood. It passes the penny test, and seems to work very well. I still need to refinish the miter gauge, finish or laminate the rip fence faces, clean up the outside rims of the handwheels, touch up the paint and do some more work on the top, but I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out, especially for my first non-Neander old iron restoration.
