Machine Information
Serial Number:	87 2919
Machine Type:	Band Saw
Machine Description:	Delta Milwaukee Bandsaw with Cast Iron Base
Owner:	Eric Hawley
Manufacture Date:	1950
Notes:	Source=Owner's submission (admin added date based on s/n). Owner's notes: I've been using this bandsaw for a little over 20 years with never any issue, mostly cutting wood. After doing a bit of research here, I have discovered that this might well be a wood/metal bandsaw with two speed transmission. I'm hoping I can find others who own this same machine and can offer information about how the machine is configured using the various drive belt pulleys and what I understand to be a transmission.
