Yep, cheaper being a charter member of the CSAoA, and TOMPU. ;)

:ChinScratch:Guess I should have stated the abbreviations long version. :huh:

 

First there's the CSAoA which is the "Curb Shoppers Association of America"  

Get quite a few parts, and sometimes even complete machines. (Have to beat the "Scrappers" to these.)

 

Then there's TOMPU which is :ph34r: "The Old Machinery Parts Underground" :ph34r:

:throbbinghead:

Basically, this marvelous Al Gore invention. :P

Items acquired through the CSAoA that you don't need can be used for trading purposes for those hard-to-find parts, etc. that you need/want. ;)

Sometimes you even find things listed for free. :TwoThumbsUp:

I :WhoMe:was wasting a bit of time over on the Vintage Machinery site looking through some early editions of the Deltagrams and found this article in the volume 1 No.2 March 1932 edition. http://www.vintagemachinery.org/pubs/detail.aspx?id=25594

 

What I found was a setup with seven machines ran off of one motor. :ChinScratch:

:( But the photos in the article failed to show how the drill press was ran. :WonderScratch:

I went a few more pages and found. :TwoThumbsUp:

Though some of the machines are a bit earlier than mine I could easily substitute my machines for those. ;)

 

:ChinScratch:Might have to check with the :ph34r: "Old Machinery Underground Parts Network" :ph34r: not sure if I have enough line-shaft hangers. :unsure:

I was googling looking for a little info for my next project and I stumbled back here.. You posted some identifiers to figure which model I have I'll go check.. As for the little Donkey shop above.. I am sure that Montgomery Ward marketed a very similar bench..  AND before I forget,, It almost looks like a trackball in one of the pix that has been painted.. What kind of person does that???

If I remember correctly the Montgomery Wards setup was made by Walker-Turner.

If your saw is an 8" Tilty (Tilt-Table) it could go by model numbers 860, or 34-160. Was also sold under the HomeCraft line of Delta tools.

If it's a 10" Tilty it would be an 1160. 

As to the trackball, I have no idea what photo you're looking at mines Graphite.
