The 52-975 came with a low voltage control (LVC) USA-made magnetic starter that listed for about $500.00 in 2004. Yes, that starter can be configured to control a 1.5 HP single phase motor and it...
Phenolic is the slickest and gives the best control. Acrylic is ok. Polycarbonates have a drag to them because of the water in the plastic. That's also what makes that type of plastic so...
5/8-18 LEFT hand it is according to my shop drawings.
They can sometimes be a pain to break loose.
Naturally, the threads will be turning in the wrong direction so the nut will unscrew rather than tighten but I figure you've already figured out how to solve that potential glitch.
Assuming it is a single phase motor, interchange leads 5 and 8. That changes the direction the capacitor shoots a startup charge to the starting windings.
If a three phase motor, interchange any two...
That jointer looks to me like a shop-made jointer using what other components that were available at the time like the guard and cutterhead.
Walker Turner did indeed make a 12" saw. They are rare.
Krylon K05160807 ColorMaster is one of the modern iterations of the old 1608 smoke gray color that was so popular for Delta machines. There are several other formulas of the smoke gray that krylon...
Jointer: 87503 & 87502
Excellent call to pass. Its a Taiwan tool from the 80s or 90s. May have had a USA address that belonged to the importer/seller. It would be a fair buy for $400.00.
The overspray actually defines it as original Powermatic.
Powermatic painted the blue Leeson motors to match the machine they were building at the time. This practice continued through several...
I'll second that.
A C145TC frame is a face mount motor typically found on the Powermatic 66 table saw. The 66's motor was also a 3450 rpm motor.
A 1750 rpm motor on an 1150A will run a bit at...
A lot will depend on your expectations in "long term" durability. I figure the most you'll get is five years before the exposed surface has deteriorated to looking like firewood. The best UV...
Good cutting brad point bits are pretty much a DIY situation. Bench Grinder, magnifying glass, and toolroom abrasive wheel (A60-OBNA2 6" x .035 is my favorite). A little practice and you'll get it....
The bed raising gearbox is activated by a lever on the front. Engage the lever and the bed automatically raises. If the pin is broken the lever doesn't do anything and the bed has to be raised and...
If I had to choose one over the other, condition would be the first consideration. If both were about the same, I'd choose the RC51 hands down. Actually they both take up about the same footprint....
The Whiteside staggered cutter design was recommended to me so I tried it. No complaints.

I think like others do. The contacts are likely corroded or dirty. This is a very common problem when those switches get some age on them. Take the switch apart and clean the contacts. Air won't...
Dealing with modern "1/4" plywood is problematic for most stack dado sets. Years back, Sears had the perfect wobble dado for this. I had one as my first dado set and eventually gave it away...
When switch shopping, don't forget the unavoidable condition called inrush current. "Experts" won't agree on how many times more amps the inrush is than the rated running amps, but three times is...
I started later, maybe 1977 with Senco brand air tools. The newer stuff (1990 and up) is a little better designed and somewhat more powerful, but not as durable. Some of my staplers are from the...
The observers are correct. That saw started out from the factory in the 1950s as a Rockwell/Delta 34-350. What it is now is a chopped up mess. Another 'gotcha' detail is that many of those saws...
Forrest Woodworker II turned my 314 into the saw I'd always hoped it would be. Particularly smooth on plywood. The freud is about as sorry of an excuse for a blade for this saw that I've ever run...
A well thought out decision on a multitude of levels for putting together a wood shop. The only potential down side, if you want to call it that, is that having the capacity of a full size machine...
I'll agree with others on the resale value guess. The Delta 34-425 was an unusual design with no provisions for extension wings and the motor did not tilt with the arbor like a contractor's type...
