If anyone has a picture of a switch rod for a vintage Delta 6" jointer on an open steel stand I'd appreciate it if you could post it. I'd like to fabricate one. I have the switch and the clamp, but is there a rubber bushing somewhere (per the 37-207 manual). I'm also looking at the right bends. Thx.

Found the following thread at OWWM. Keep in mind this is a reproduction, but sure it matches OEM. The pics are pretty descent and why I shared. I'm about to make one for a 10" Delta BS as well.

For the rod I may use a voting sign stand that I found on the side of the road which is close to the right dia.

As far as the bushing I'd simply use a rubber grommet. I did this with my Delta drill press (DP22O) switch rod years ago. You may be able to find on at a big box store, McMaster, Amazon, etc. or even pick up a box of mixed sizes at HF.


Here's one more:

Also seen in a catalog on page 30.
