The biggest worry is Delta doesn't sell parts for these old saws. If you need something, you are limited to searching the internet for used parts.

The stamped steel table wings kind of suck, too. But it doesn't look like a beat up saw, so it would still be a fairly easy sell.

We have created these special content collections organized to give you a deep dive into a range of topics that matter.

I am a fairly new woodworker and I am seriously considering buying this.  Whats your take on it and what pitfalls can I expect?  I’m fairly good mechanically and working on it doesn’t scare me but the cost of parts might…

If it is in decent shape (it looks like it) and runs well as it sits it should do you for many, many years if not forever; right tilt excluded. ;-)

So how do you differentiate between these two most popular metals? Which is better for your CNC machining project, stainless steel or aluminum milling? Today we ...

It's a hand pay, the attendant will be with you in 2 hours.

Right tilt means moving the fence to the other side for bevels which isn't really an option for the unifence (can you switch sides on a unifence? I don't remember).

A lot of people LOVE their Uni-fence and I see the saw has that including the hi-lo extrusion so that's a plus. It is a right tilt saw which makes it a 'no' for me but, others are not bothered by it. If you do little bevel work it is a non-issue.

I agree with the above comments. That's a good saw. Doesn't look that old. Has a nice long extension. Everyone loves their unifence. Motor may be able to be wired for 110v, otherwise you need a 220 outlet.
