I just bought a Delta 28-40 bandsaw for a very low price (200.00) because it has some broken parts and the guy didn't know anything about it (was left in his building when he bought it). Other than being somewhat rusty; the trunnion is broken, along with the upper and lower blade guide brackets, all the pieces are there, but being pot metal, I know about the impossibility of welding or pinning the parts back together. I searched for the following parts and for the first time....I can find not a single part! Very frustrating to say the least. I always wanted a larger band saw and I thought this was a good way to be able to afford one. I have lot's of experience restoring old machines and elbow grease is something I can do. The parts I'm looking for are
1. Delta 1347475 (2)
2. Delta 1347481 (1)
3. 1347491 Trunnion
If anyone knows of a source for hard to find parts; I'd really appreciate it!
I'll ad some pics of the broken parts when I get everything offloaded.
