Delta Rockewll Tilt-Arbor Vintage 10

Delta Rockewll Tilt-Arbor Vintage 10

I'm unable to find the model number. Where can I find it? I need to find a part for my saw. This saw belonged to my great uncle, Lars Boyd, a building contractor in the 1940's and 1950's in Seattle, Washington. Here are the numbers I have: Serial Number: CC 3539; I find the number TAB 140 on the underside of the table part of the saw.

This saw has been stored in several places and had become very rusty. It is now cleaned up and working. It has a Craftsman motor which is working. The name Delta Rockwell is written on the base of the saw.

The missing piece is the insert from which the blade protrudes. The piece is an oval measuring 10 1/4 inches by 3 1/2 inches with a depth of 3/8 inch.

Any help you can give me to find either the model number or the part would be appreciated.

Insert for 9" Delta/Rockwell table saw
by: Anonymous

Go to Peachtree woodworking, they have plastic zero clearance inserts for under $20. I say this as I have a 9" delta/Rockwell and the length of the insert is around 10+ inches, which is very hard to find.

I have a similar saw (1943 Unisaw) and live in Gig Harbor. I can provide you with an insert and show you how to make them. I have several for zero clearance dados.

I have no idea how old this posting is or if you still need one. I can be reached at: iggy348@comcast.net

I BELIEVE IT IS A 34 600 SAW

Model and Parts

I believe that you have a Delta 34-500 8" tilting arbor table saw. The table insert should be part #34-961. You may try searching for it on 'vintage machinery' website or OWWM's website.

Comments on Delta Rockwell 8" Table Saw
by: Jim and Karen

Thanks for the suggestion to look at Grizzly. I did make a plywood insert and it is working just fine but would love to find an original. The blade on the saw is 8 1/4 inches. Does that mean it is an 8 inch saw? Where does one measure to determine the size of the saw?

Are you sure it's not an 8"?
Go to grizzly, they have some inserts. All mine are plywood now, getting an original is difficult at best. You can adjust the height by sanding.
