I recently burned out the motor in my cheap Lowes table saw and started searching craigs list for a higher quality table saw. I found a listing for multiple machines and went to see them. It turned out to be a gentleman who owned a furniture making shop who was retiring due to illness. To my surprise it was a shop full of vintage Delta Milwaukee tools. I picked up the unisaw, band saw, jointer, drill press and belt sander for $625. I brought them home, installed new fan belts on all of them and began using them. They all are in nearly perfect working condition. I hope to do a complete restoration on all of them, but for now plan to just use them.
