This Craftsman machinist box is for sale in my general area. I believe it to be a Kennedy but I have never seen drawer pulls like that before. Union? Added intrigue with the rounded corners, side latches and leather handle. Appreciate any insight.

A few months ago I purchased a Craftsman 12-in disc sander I found on OfferUp. I have a number of spare Craftsman motors and knew when I bought it I would be replacing the Emerson general-purpose motor. They run fine, but my intention is to flip it and a Packard made 115.19780 would...

I was given this 10" disc/belt sander. Base is cast iron and a previous owner built the wooden cabinet underneath. There are no obvious markings anywhere to denote a manufacturer other than cast part numbers. I cannot access the motor at this time as it is in the center hub. Individual who gave...

With the loyal following Walker-Turner machines have, its time to roll out a Walker-Turner thread where GJ members can share pics and knowledge of their prized W-T possessions. Sometime between 1927-29 Ernest Walker and William Turner formed the Walker-Turner Company, Inc. in Jersey City, New...

Grabbed this EARLY this morning. Wanted to share as the ships wheel is not all that common. Came with the spindle cover and safety collar. Runs very well for a pre-40s drill press. I got it cheap so I can't complain. It does have some minor "issues", though they're all non mechanical...

I thought it was high time we started a Delta Manufacturing Co. / Delta Rockwell thread to discuss and post all your Delta/Delta Rockwell stuff. "Delta Specialty Company" was started in 1919 by machinist Herbert Tautz while working out of his garage, initially only producing small home tools...

Several weeks ago I bought this Craftsman 12" disc sander. I have dated it as 1958 for the following reasons. In 1957 the optional motor offered was a Dunlap 1/3 HP. In 1958 the optional motor offered was a Craftsman 1/3 HP. This motor is dated July 1957. Also, while disassembling the sander...

I bought this pre serial number (made before 1941) Delta belt sander and wanted to share a fairly unique accessory. We've all seen many Delta retractable casters for the various splayed foot pedestals, but I had yet to see a Delta cast iron caster wheel set. I scoured Delta catalogs and found...

Picked this up yesterday. Far and away the heaviest bench top drill press I've ever had to move around. Having had no prior experience with a South Bend Lathe Works drill press I was quite surprised at some of the innovative features. This early 1950s drill press actually had a factory installed...

I'm pretty familiar with vintage Delta bandsaws, having bought, sold and restored a half dozen, this is my first Walker Turner bandsaw. I bought this for $175. Ser No. is 19-639. It runs very well, gearbox was seamless. Pictures are the condition I found it in. Of note, I have never before...

Saw a very nondescript ad in OfferUp, inquired if the owner could send me a few more pictures which he did and I couldn't get to his house fast enough. This is a new in box, never used, 42-year-old, three phase Craftsman grinder. The lamp, eye guards, tool rests and hardware are all still in the...

Picked up this 220 yesterday from yet another "I'm leaving California and moving to Arizona/Idaho/Texas" situation. Motor runs very smooth, and as you can imagine the spindle speed is probably around 200rpm. I've only seen one other Delta with this accessory on vintage machinery. When the handle...

Wanted to share a few pictures of my 1940 Delta DP220. It's taken me several weeks to get to this point, the Delta repulsion motor is still getting worked over.

I wanted to share this Craftsman Woodworker's vise because I don't see this style anywhere near as often as the 506.51890 that had about a 20 year run. I found this on FB, was two cities over and purchased it for $70 which I felt was a great price (was listed for $100). It functions very...

Blackhawk tool box. I'd prefer local pick up only but will ship. ****SOLD****

Greeting GJ members, This is my first post. Before I get to my Athol and Prentiss, Id like to say "thank you very much" to all the members of GJ for sharing so much wisdom and expertise. For years I have entering many google search questions about various home repair issues and more often than...
