Delta Homecraft 37-368 Combination 4” Jointer (37-290) & 8" Table Saw (34-160). I inherited this wonderful vintage combination Table Saw & Jointer from my father. I've used both tools with great success for building and repairing furniture. During a recent move to a new residence, I accidentally broke the die-cast front trunnion worm shaft housing (part #NCS-55-S) and also damaged the front trunnion teeth on the bracket (part #NCS-20) to which the arbor is mounted. I found and purchased a replacement NCS-55-S front trunnion worm shaft housing. Now I'm in search of the NCS-20 bracket for my table saw.

I am able to adjust the table tilt angle without a working trunnion by manually positioning the table while having someone else tighten the trunnion star wheel. However, as you can imagine, this is quite awkward and inconvenient.

I'd love to have a fully-functioning vintage table saw again, so if anyone out there knows where I can purchase an NCS-20 bracket for my Delta Homecraft 34-160 8" Table Saw, please notify me at higbytoys@yahoo.com.

I would also like to replace the Delta NCS-352 Tennoning Jig for the table saw. I loaned this jig to someone, who decided to sell or trade it for another woodworking tool for his woodshop.
