Today, I was in a pawn shop to get a right angle drill for a job I'm doing. Over at the front of the shop they had a Delta mobile base (model 50 - 277). It included an extra item. They wanted $120, out the door. Checking Woodworker's Supply's catalog, I see them for $112, plus tax and shipping. Do you think this is too much for a used mobile base. Oh yeah, the extra item is a Delta 10 contractor's saw. What do you think?

If the waw's in good shape, it sounds like you've got a quandry there, Bruce. If you need the saw you gotta ask yourself, "Do I wanna suck, or do I wanna be stupid?" Your choice.

Dennis,

From what I've heard here is that Bruce doesn't have a quandry, I think he's a rancher with a herd of different Delta tablesaw .

Nice to see a rancher every once in a while that ain't all hat & no cattle.
