These re-stores are really worth a drop-by from time to time.
Never know what you may find.
Here's my latest. A 1958 Delta 900 RAS, with the OEM stand and in great condition.
No parts are broken or missing.
Hate to do it, but my DeWalt MBF will be up for sale.

Glad to see you had a good experience at a Habitat for Humanity Restore. I have been volunteering at our store in Marquette MI for about 10 years. We do get interesting woodworking tools donated to the store and they sell for reasonable prices - usually one half of regular retail. The store profits go toward building homes for people who need them.

Find someone who is trashing a Craftsman for the bounty, and get the guard. Then you can run 10" blades. The "Super 900's" did that.

For a 3/4hp motor, 10" is a bit much. I'll stay with an 8 or 9". Has a 9" on it now.
Besides, a C-man guard on a vintage Delta machine would never be allowed on OWWM. :eek:
