I would recommend the Delta since it’s a 12 inch saw and you will never need another one. Join OWWM and there is a ton of information for both saws.

A drum sander is more important than a disc sander. I have a homemade wedgie sled to cut all of the segments. To clean them up I glue 100 grit to a piece of MDF. Where a disc sander does come in...
I have no system but will by a few extra boards just in case. If it’s a wood I use fairly regularly I buy as much as my budget allow since the supplier is an hour away.
Keep them all. You can regrind scrapers, spindle and bowl gouges for different purposes. You can also learn to sharpen and not worry about learning on expensive tools. Once you find the ones you like...
There is space between the saw and cabinets so I ran DC from the router and saw to the right hand side of the saw in are part of the cabinet. I can attach the hose to either port. I also ran wiring...
I have something very similar to this. I have my TS and assembly/outfeed table in the middle of my shop. The saw and extension table are 27” by 8’. The assembly table is 4x8 so the whole set up is 6...
i bought the Supermax 19/38 for this purpose. Sanding rings by hand was a pain in the behind so this is a time saver. I have no complaints.
Check out Lee Valley hardware.
If your looking to resaw look for saws with large resaw capabilities. While older saws are bigger they don’t have the resaw capacity of the newer ones. The new 14 inch saws from Laguna, Rikon, etc...
Have you made sure the headstock pulley set screws are tight and any other set screws tight? This could explain the back and forth. The motor hangs on the headstock so it could move it. This happened...
The ones at Home Depot fit and work fine.
Check the Bay. I found my duet door there.
Unless the bolts are broken they can be reused. HF sells a good buffer cheap and put a couple of wire wheels on it, one course and one fine. Take the planer completely apart, clean, repaint and put...
If you haven’t joined OWWM join. There’s a ton of restoration information there. You can get the dust cover and motor cover on EBay. I got a 74 at an auction with a 3 phase motor and swapped it out...
Surplus Center.com has a great variety of belts in pretty much all sizes.
I’ve tried all kinds of pencils but the best one is still the Papermate mechanical yellow pencil.
These go in the holes on the comparator rear bracket. They are used to hold a spindle you were trying to duplicate See pages 16-17 of the manual. If you don’t have the manual just google Powermatic...
I would have to say that’s a pretty good price considering the helical head would cost a 1/3 to 1/2 of the price. Since you are familiar with complete teardowns if it’s just needs a good clean up and...
Just my opinion...
1. Plywood, MDF and particle board aren’t the strongest to support shelves
2. Paint. You can putty all of the holes, etc. it’s a closet
3. The HD and Lowe’s poplar or birch...
They do make chauk in colors. Where are you going to chauk? If it’s between the slats the wood may expand and contract which could crack the chauk.
Surplus Center has pulleys for a reasonable price.
Is plywood an option? You can get a plywood in most native woods.
1/2 ply will work just as well. It will probably cost as much as the OSB and 1/8.
50 bucks. Nice score.
I would recommend you try to make the garage work and use the basement for wood and supply storage. Over time it will be a pain to keep going back and forth.
