ive been looking for a cheap bandsaw...can anyone tell, by this pic , if this delta is worth $75?420374

[Ronald Blue]

I hope it's already sitting in your shop. If it runs it's a steal. Lot's of parts are available for the old Deltas and their clones. It doesn't have the factory base but that will suffice. There are much more qualified people than I that should chime in soon but that seems like a great deal.

[Frederick Skelly]

Im right there with Ron. If it runs it's worth $75 - and maybe even if it doesnt.
He who hesitates is lost - go buy that thing!

Looks like an older made in USA Delta, if it's in good condition it would sell here for $400 to $500, at $75 it's a steal.

thanks guys, i hope to pick it up this evening

[Ernie Loposser]

ok, managed to make the deal on the saw, got it and the enco drill press also...something that Im wondering, is this part supposed to be wood?420455

[Doug Garson]

Looks like the part you are pointing to is the rear blade guard. Material doesn't really matter it just prevents accidental contact with the blade. My Canadian made Rockwell has a metal guard, my Asian clone had a wooden guard, both work, no issue.

My old Milwalkee/Delta 14"'s guard in that location is wood. I believe it to be original

[Tom Bender]

I'd have to build a nicer base, but that's just me.

Maybe back to back with the drill press.

Nice score.

You did well...i bought an old one like that for helping with tenons.Works very well...Good score!!!
