Comments:

This jointer was bought originally for a boss of a friend of mine. My friend Steve, who knew of my love of restoring good old American-made ww machines, dropped it off at my shop last winter. When I first saw it, I knew I got to have this sweet little machine in my little shop. So I told Steve if he could persuade his boss to accept a trade of my Craftsman 6" jointer for his Delta. Well, it took some dealings and it got done. Plus repairing his boss's garden tractor/mower and selling the Craftsman 10" that I just restored. I restored the Delta jointer, first I didn't like the institutional green and, secondly to check if everything is all there. Except for a couple of special leg bolts and a crank handle, it is all there. Well, this is definitely a "keeper"!

Comments: Well, it is done. And this was on Memorial Day. Yes, the belt guard is off. Still got it and stored away. I will replace the outfeed table crank handle from Acetoolrapair.com soon.
