Delta Finishing Machine 4" Belt 12" Disc No. 31-700

The Delta Finishing Machine No. 31-700 with standard 4" belt and 12" disc was capable of performing 90 to 95% of all your finishing operations. It was excellent for all finishing operations on wood and plastic; for grinding, surfacing or polishing steel components, die castings; aluminum, brass and copper parts, and a variety of other materials. Like all Delta tools of this vintage, the No. 31-700 Delta Finishing Machine is a heavy beast, but the heft is what allows so little vibration during operation.

No Lost Motion - the Delta finishing machine enabled you to move from one machine to another in seconds - as required when finishing curved, straight or irregular shaped parts.

With two machines mounted on one stand and operated by one motor, you save valuable shop space and keep your motor costs to a minimum.

These time and money-saving features made the Delta Finishing machine an excellent unit for use in wood and metal pattern shops, sign and display shops and all types of commercial shops throughout industry. It was also ideal for use in schools and home workshops.

The large table was 9 3/4" deep x 16 1/4" wide. It provided ample work support for finishing core prints of large patterns. The fully machined disc was balanced for vibration-free operation on close-tolerance pattern making jobs.

An exclusive new grinding attachment facilitates hollow grinding of plane irons, wood chisels and other cutting tools quickly and safely without burning or loss of temper. Carving and wood turning tools also can be sharpened free-hand.

The Auto-Set Miter Gage makes chamfering, beveling, mitering, and end-sanding operations easy. Table can be tilted 20 degrees toward and 45 degrees away from the disc for compound angle finishing. An easy-to-read tilt scale simplified the table settings.

A handy, rigid backstop facilitates the finishing of flat work and simplified the sanding of small pieces. The belt end guard has an adjustable dust deflector and built-in spout for attaching to wood and metal dust collection systems.

The husky 4 1/4" wide x 12" long platen can be inverted for underside general finishing or deburring operations on hard-to-handle parts. Easily removed for free-hand finishing of odd-shaped parts where a firm back support is not required.
