I admire your perseverance with all the little wire wheels. I myself would use a wire wheel on a bench grinder for the small stuff as it's easier to hold a small piece to a stationary machine than it is to hold a heavier machine to wire off small pieces.
Nicely done. I, myself, have gone through two rebuilds of this era of jointer, one being a six inch and one being a four. Both came from combi-machines, having a table saw on the same stand and run by the same motor. The stand is from the post-war era (1945-55ish) and was sold through Sears. I have five or six of them in storage and three in use. Very versatile units.
A little late but… I would not recommend taking sandpaper to the ways unless you absolutely have to, they have tiny grooves meant to allow lubricration. It’s a lot of work but totally worth it to bring back an otherwise junk of metal to life.
I just got the same model, serial number puts it in late 40's. This is a great video as I am going to do full restoration and helps to visualize it. Thanks for posting!
Thank you for making this! I just got model, give or take a few years, With the same Delta logo badge. Only difference is mine has sink faucet style handle instead of the cooler art deco style this one has. Your video was a tremendous help! Sincerely Thank you!!
Is it recommended to use antiseize on the screws? Wouldn't you want that extra friction to keep them from loosing up and the blade flying off? It's a great video. I just acquired one that was from an old school shop class and it's in really nice condition given the age. Don't think I'm going to do a complete tear down on it yet but perhaps in a couple years. Rest assured, this will be saved in one of my watchlists for reference. Great video!!
this is cool been looking for this, l have a Delta Jointer l found in the shop where l moved to in NC. ran the numbers it is the same model, It runs, l have run some scrap thru it but now l can see what l am getting into to refurbing it. Man they dont make them like they used too. can you still get blades for them? thanks, l have a Delta Scroll Saw same vintage l got up and running. was able to the the manual from Delta Machinery..
RESPECT for giving a great old war-time woodworking machine another lease on life.

I really enjoy these restorations and this one with very few tools nice to see

Amazing video - thank you. Picking up the same one today and this will be very helpful with my own restoration.
esto no es restaurar, es limpiar una maquina para usarla de nuevo amigo. pero le pusiste corazón eso es lo importante, gracias por el video.
Definieer restorasie. Ek dink hy het die masjien weer werkbaar gemaak.
En realidad lo que has hecho es una lavada de cara, pero funciona y antes no, eso es lo importante. Reciclaste una excelente máquina en desuso. Bien!

How fast is the cutterhead going
Faltou capricho..
I have a 1938 version of this jointer. Do you know where I can get the blade guard assembly? Lot of work you did, looks and sounds great!
