Looking for the age of a Delta disk sander?

It is a 12’’ disk / 4’’ x 54’’ belt sander combo the serial # is CN 700 and says Delta / Rockwell and is on a red tag with a Pittsburg, Pennsylvania description.

Thanks Richard

I would look at the motor. The motor usually has a bunch of info about it...including when it was made.

I think it's actually a 4"x52" with a 12" in disc. (I've got one also.) If you find any info, please post. I think it was made just before, or after WWII. There is a site on old woodworking machines that would likely have some info. I believe it's owwm.com. :)
