I've restored my 103.22540 sander, which is an "updated" version of this sander. It uses a cam system for tracking and tensioning. 11b30b4, I know you have both. Which tension/tracking system do you prefer?

Hours and hours of looking and nothing. Cannot find the manufacturer of this chuck. Is that an H and an S? I know it’s not a Horton & Sons. I’m scared it’s going to be some lame trash brand that is good for nothing more than keeping paper from blowing away.

I have one of their hammers. It’s one of my most prized tools.

Holy **** that whale is awesome!!!

Does anyone know where one can find dimensions of the stand? I know the top is offset from the bottom.

Also, you’re not going to make a video of your restoration are you?

Thank you!!! I may try my hand at building a pedestal for mine. Too expensive to ship the real McCoy to me.

Thank you guys for the info. I don't need anything incredibly precise but I will from time to time down the road. I think I'll pick up this Delta and call it good. I love GJ.

Here it is. Any idea what the age is?

I've got a few options right now and I'm not sure which to go with. There's an Emerson made Craftsman 150 for sale in really good condition and there's a Delta 17" floor model with table adjuster and foot pedal attachments that is in really good condition. Which would you pick?

Can anyone tell me what that hole is for? Is it threaded? Does something attach there?

Thanks all you guys.

I already have everything else. Just need a bar.

Yeah, the pics are from a guy who took them 100 miles from where he and I are. He's not done this before. thanks for the information.

Oh. Duh. That’s very likely.
