I've got to quit looking at Craig's List. :WhoMe:

 

I first spotted this on the above mentioned website about 2 weeks ago. 

It just kept drawing me back, and after seeing it posted for that long I just had to check it out.

It was about 35-40 miles from me. I called the poster on Sunday, but only got his voice mail. :(

I checked Craig's List again on Monday, and it was still listed. :ChinScratch:

So I replied via email this time, and within 10 minutes received a phone call from the poster.

He stated it was still available! :huh: ...:wacko:...:CoveringEyes:. What was I to do? :WonderScratch:

Needless to say I had to check it out. :BitingNails: Told the wife I'm just going to look. :unsure:

 

So now your wondering just what's so special about an old 8" Table Saw! 565653ef73546_IDontKnow.gif.01caecda7e615c644de7a112928e6d71.gif

 

This ones a bit different than most of the old Delta "Tilty" Table Saws.

It was only made for a few years, roughly 1941-47 give or take a year.

It only appears in the 1942 Delta general line catalog published in late 1941.

 

So here's what I went to "Look At".

Right Badge Side.

Front Control Side.

Left Pulley Side.

It's missing the guide and rails, but I've already checked and the parts from a few other saws from the same period are either the same, or adaptable. :TwoThumbsUp:

 

This was one of those two for one deals that you had to buy both to get the one you wanted.

Here's what I also had to buy to get this one.

I don't need another Scroll Saw, but I wanted the TS, Sooo...

And while there the PO told me he had a few more machines up in the garage loft. :huh:

You know I just had to "Look". :WhoMe: 

I'll make a separate post for the other orphan that followed me home.

 

But wait there's even more to this story that happened on my way to check out this saw. 

Sitting on the side of the road was a 1964 Delta Rockwell 40-440 Scroll Saw! :JawDrop:

You know I couldn't just leave it there for the scrappers. :BangingHead:

 

So with these and the one I'll be posting separate all total including gas $70.00 :DevilLaughing:

    Nice haul.  Of course you couldn’t leave an orphan there.  Just wouldn’t be humane.
