Vintage Delta Tools, Photos & Resources

For years, the Delta Mfg. company made some of the most sought after and highest quality American made woodworking machinery available. On this page you'll find many examples of those fine tools shared by visitors to this website.

Vintage Delta UnisawDelta tools were widely used by small to medium sized furniture and cabinet shops, schools, and by the home craftsman.

I've been lucky enough to own and use almost every woodworking machine that Delta made including those from the Homecraft line like the 8" Model 34-500 8" table saw, the Combination 8" table saw and 4" jointer, the 1/2" light duy shaper, 10" band saw, 18" scroll saw, 11" lathe and others.

I've also used what the heavy dutu machines like the 10" Unisaw, 14" band saw, 24" scroll saw. heavy duty shaper, 4", 6" and 8" jointers and more. My favorite vintage Delta tools are those that came on the heavy cast iron art deco stands.

Many of those tools like the wood/metal cutting band saw and six inch and eight inch jointers are featured on these pages.
