This is a 1937 Delta 14" band saw my gradfather purchased new, passed to my father, and then last year I inherited it. It was fairly original and in good condition. I did a full restoration and re-paint. I managed to salvage the original decals even tho they had been painted over several times over the years. It rolls on industrial dual casters with thumb locks and wingnut locks. For accuracy I installed a Kreg fence. I fabricated a dust collector to mount under the open part of the casting behind the lower wheel. I took a little liberty with the paint scheme using safety red on knobs and misc parts. This is a great piece of machinery and I use it frequently. It's clean in these pictures but doesn't stay that way long
