PLEASE NOTE: was founded as a public service toĪmateur and professional woodworkers who enjoy using and/or restoring vintage machinery. Seller assumes all responsibility for this listing. I am creating a sequential queue from which I will be contacting potential buyers after the order is lifted.) (Note: The table saw may be viewed after the NH stay-at-home order is lifted. The saw comes with a 50-inch Biesemeyer t-square fence system ($520 new), Brett-Guard blade guard ($250 new), mobile base ($200 new), and homemade extension table. It is a mystery why the original motor would have had to be replaced.) (In my experience, this motor has been very reliable. The bullet motor, while made by Marathon Electric Motor, does not have the typical Delta label and is likely to not be original. The miter gauge is a Rockwell and not original. I have never owned the goose-egg motor cover or original electrical switch box. The serial number is 38-2290, indicating that it was manufactured in Milwaukee in 1945. The saw is set up for 220-volt, single-phase operation. I am selling my Delta Unisaw, which I have owned for twenty years. Vintage Delta Unisaw with 50-inch Biesemeyer t-square fence, blade guard, and mobile base.

Are you making your choice based on the machine’s appearance? What role does usability in the shop play? Or are you thinking something entirely different.īy all means, leave a comment and let us know what you think. But before you answer, take a minute to think. We want to know if the vintage fence system should have been left on the saw, or should the table saw have been fitted with the newest Biesemeyer design. Take a look at the video, then take a minute to be part of our survey. In the end, not only does the World-War II era table saw have a rebuilt interior and reworked motor, it has a new fence system and is ready for use in any modern-day shop. Shanesy does something that many old-woodworking-machine owners might find upsetting, off goes the old fence and on goes a new Biesemeyer. He talks about how the blades raise and lower, about the differences in table size (does size matter?) then he wraps up with a comparison of the fence setup found on the vintage saw and the newest version of a Biesemeyer found on today’s Unisaw. The differences are huge from the standpoint of safety and convenience to operate. In this segment, Popular Woodworking Magazine Publisher Steve Shanesy walks through a simple comparison of the 1944 vintage saw and the 21st-century Delta Unisaw. And that’s where we are in the Delta Unisaw Rebuild videos.Įpisode six ( click here) has more than a couple tidbits of information to absorb. It’s sad to reach the end, but we learn to accept it.
