A recent dumpster acquisition was an old rusty 9" Delta Band Saw with a broken blade, tensioner and missing parts.
I was able to source the tension bolt (or get a close proximity replacement) got new blades and borrow a spring from my daughter's old crib for the compression spring (provides belt tension by resisting against the tension bold.
The last piece I was to repair is the table top insert for the blade. You could stick your finger in the gap and it doesn't help to reduce blade saw or twist any more than the guide wheels do even when set close together.
This prints a solid block for the Delta (an unusual square recess instead of the more common circle. It will need to be placed and cut in
**I am not finished with this project just yet - a few more fit tests as I am still sanding a little to get it to fit in snug.**
