Delta Milwaukee Band Saw Serial Numbers
A few weeks ago I was driving down the street and spotted this setting in a 'Garage Sale'. I slammed on the brakes and backed upped to the driveway. Upon inspection it turned out to be a complete and functioning band saw. I inquired about the price and the guy said '$25?'

Tom clancy's the division gameplay. As if he was asking a fortune and wasn't sure the saw was worth that much. I pulled out my billfold and passed him the cash so fast his head was spinning. 'I think I might have priced that too cheap?' 'Yep, you did.' I says, as I am beginning to take the saw apart for transport to the super secret R&D Dept. Of T&E Technology.

After I get the saw apart and settled into the trunk of my Saturn SC-2 (yes, it is the 1 ton model) the previous owner tells me the saw was purchased new by his father 'after he got home from the service' and had been used to butcher deer at the family hunting camp in the Ozarks. After the father passed away the family sold that property and the saw had sat in the owners basement for the past 30 years without being used. As it turned out what I thought was saw dust migrating out of the saw was actually mummified whitetail deer DNA (necessitating a complete vacuuming of the trunk once unloaded). The owners grandkid had graffiti'd the saw with his airbrush and the saw shows the usual 59 years of abuse and neglect but is completely intact right down to the OEM Delta 1/2 HP motor. The motor pictured is a TEFC 1/2 HP I was checking for fit. An OEM 'Open Stand' complete with the factory 'Delta Bugle Bolts' The table shows a patina of rust but no pitting so it should clean and wax OK. The original factory Serial Number tag.
