First Tool Gloat.

[buildintechie]

Picked this up from the Chapel Hill Lowes for $150 (see Delta clearance thread).

It was the floor model, and is missing one of the two table adjustment handles, and the safety key for the switch. For the short term, a pair of scissors works well, and I ordered the missing parts for a whopping $21.

I was in the Chapel Hill store about noon today and looked at that. I decided that the floor model DP I have drills round, straight holes and even though it was a good deal, I didn't need it. Glad you were able to get it.

Glad to see that these Delta DP's are finding good homes among us NC Woodworkers!!!:icon_cheers:icon_cheers

Bet you will enjoy that machine especially with its over-sized table.

I have looked at them around the Lowes stores here in Cary and they don;t seem to moving off of the regular prices yet. - Same with the Ridgid stuff at HD's.

Good catch!!!:icon_thum:icon_thum:icon_thum

Congratulations.

Jeff,

A most excellent tool snag. Congrats.

I was wondering when anybody would notice the sawdust.

Too bad I'm working a 24 today, have class all day tomorrow and working 36 starting sunday. I'll play with it someday...
