Anyone know where I can find such a place ?I have a factory rebuilt basic machine(read tables and adjustment levers and cutterhead). So I need bare minimum the rabbeting ledge,complete fence assembly including the base that bolts to the main casting. The base and motor -switch part would also be nice but I could just build the base and come up with a motor somewhere. So is there a Delta DJ-20 junkyard anywhere? Thanks Mike.

Have you tried Redmond Machinery? http://www.redmondmachinery.com/

Might be cheaper and easier to just get a whole new machine.

Try using grizzly G0490 parts, I installed a grizzly fence and the rabbiting ledge on a DJ-20 a few years ago.

Thanks for the replies. I don't need a whole new machine,I already have two functioning 8" jointers in my shop now. Just trying to come up with a way to salvage some of my money back and be able to convert a 200 pound boat anchor into a jointer again. You are probably right though Mike ,it would be easier and cheaper to buy another one.Joe, I will contact Grizzly and check out their prices . The parts fit well for you ? I looked at the Redmond machinery site,do they have Delta parts ? Looked like they specialize in Powermatic, I will give them a call and find out.
