Milwaukee/Delta 14" bandsaw
« on: November 26, 2012, 07:54:14 PM »
I just got a Milwaukee/Delta 14"bandsaw serial #63-7372 and would like to know the year model. It is a complete unit with belt guard, no motor. I also need to find new tires and a motor. Can anyone help a new bee out.

More than you might want to know.
I have a newer one that I'm going to be adding some bling to with the Kreg fence, Carter brand tension quick adjuster brushes for cleaning the wheels and a new tension spring. Along with the Delta 6" riser kit, I have a riser kit on my Tend lines 14" band saw. It worked well.  Will be doing a how to when I get around doing the rebuild.

IF you are in the USA, I would suggest that you go to This bookseller And get the follow DVD MASTERING YOUR BANDSAW: A Fine Woodworking DVD Workshop. any of the vid's are great.

Just got my copy and it is a great one. They have had a couple of other band saw titles and they also are good ones. That is if you are using it for wood working and converting it to metal use.

I am running these tires on my band saw with good results. Did not require gluing to the wheels which is a plus.
