1953 Delta Complete Shop

It's a jointer it's a table saw it's a drill press and a disc sander. I purchased this beauty at a secound hand store for $300. It was in pieces but as near as I could tell all the pieces were there. A couple bearings in the jointer new belts blades and wiring not to mention figuring out how to set it up. As a result it has proven to be the most reliable and precision wood working tool I have ever owned. I consider myself very fortunate to had stumbled upon it. I have other pics of it setup with the drillpress and disc sander. This site only allowed one to be posted.

Beautiful!
by: Eric

Hey man, fantastic find!
I picked up one myself, minus the grinder.
The only issue I'm having is how the belt is supposed to route the belt from the drill press. Do you have any pictures/suggestions?
I can only assume a pulley where the table saw blade goes?
Thank you!

Do you have photos of press up and connected? I purchased one of these in pieces, but don't know where to route the belt (into saw blade hole? Currently no pulley in there)

I would be interested in more pictures of your Delta Complete Shop. I have been cleaning out my father's shop and found one of these, but it has more attachments on it.
