Not sure if this is the right place but I need some help finding a guard for a Dewalt MBF radial arm saw. Picked this saw up yesterday for $35 and it needs a guard. Scared to use it without! I believe this saw was made around 1957. Thanks, David.

Go over to Old Wood Working Machines dot org (owwm.org) and sign up. Then post a picture of your saw (we love pictures) and introduce yourself. Then go to the Bring Out Your Dead section and post a request for your guard. Someone will have one.

There is also a Delphi forum for DeWalt radial arm saws but I don't have any experience with them, since I only have three or four DeWalts and I understand the guys at the Delphi forum are REALLY serious....

Saws get parted out all the time. Try here also.

There's a listing on OWWM right now for the guard you're looking for - they are giving it away (literally).
