Howdy ~
Had the good fortune to acquire a couple new tools recently.
The first is a Rockwell 14" Bandsaw model #28-200. It's missing a couple knobs, needs new tires, a new belt, new blocks - little stuff. Need to call Delta tomorrow to try to get a manual. Has a 1/2hp motor that I want to upgrade to 1hp. Anybody know of a good source for a 1hp? How about if a new Delta riser block is compatible?
The second is a never used Craftsman 1hp (6amp) router made in 1963. This is one nice solid little router. I dig the triggered handle. The coolest thing though is that it came with the box it was originally shipped in (with a hand written address label and a postmark of Feb 28, 1964 and cost $0.77 to mail).
In peace, Todd
