The cord was a little short in length but that was managed by the purchase of a 6 ft 220 extension cord that can only be found on Amazon for about $8.00. Most 220 volt tools don't come with a plug and you have to supply one yourself. I also liked that it came with an actual 220 cord and plug. Although after a years use now I have turned it off accidentally a few times during cuts, since it easily shuts down with the slightest touch of your thigh or leg. The saw is easier to turn off with their large red off button and is designed so as not to be able to turn on accidentally when leaning over the saw.
Delta took it to another level with their upfront quick release feature, that works fantastically. The addition of a riving knife was long overdue and ,as you know, is now required by law. It was always a struggle having to wedge a piece of wood behind the blade to loosen and tighten the arbor nut on the older cabinet saws.

The first time I went to install the blade, I shouted for joy with the ease and speed of installation, because of the arbor lock.

On second edit: If you want to stock up, all sorts of odd lots of fasteners can be found at Flea Markets and auctions.This Delta saw went together very nicely, per manual instructions, and all parts and pieces were accurately made and nicely milled. Since the Orange Borg has opened up in the two adjacent towns, I fear for their future. If one of them did not have what I wanted, then likely one of the others would! That town is down to one paint store, one hardware store, and the lumberyard. Each one had a unique stock which reflected the experience and opinions of their proprietors.

There were 5 hardware and paint stores plus a lumberyard within walking distance of my boyhood home. I grew up in a suburban town of about 18,000 population.

Oh, sure! You can buy all your stuff over the internet, maybe even from a supplier which is heavily into robotics to pick, pack, and ship! If you do, don't be surprised that the main street of your town becomes a series of empty storefronts, and your kids can't find summer jobs. (Just knocking off the lawn care sales is enough to put some small shops in the red.) Buy whatever you can from them, even seasonal things that are cheaper at The Big Box. Newcomers to this board may not have noticed the "Sticky Thread" up at the top of the forum, where we try to list the few remaining great hardware emporiums.Ĭherish your small stores. Just like the TNG Borg, "Resistance is Futile! You will be Assimilated!" With apologies to Star Trek, The Next Generation, there's a huge orange Borg travelling around, assimilating all the small hardware stores.
That's where to look for 1/2-20 NF.Īnother place you might find a 1/2-20 thread is the head bolt or manifold bolt of an older American car. I can't remember the name right now, but you've seen them. There's a firm which supplies hardware stores with racks of divided drawers containing unusual fasteners.
One thing I am in the habit of when I do locate hard to find fasteners locally is buy a few extra to keep on hand, often in different lengths that could be cut down if needed. If they ever go out of business I'll start referring to the time period after as the Post-apocalyptic era. I've had to drive further to visit actual hardware stores and even then I might have to visit 2 or more plus auto parts stores to find what used to be common sizes of fasteners. It's part of the general trend of hardware stores turning into what I call hardware boutiques where there are more decorative items than actual hardware.
I just go to the industrial supply places. More for the house wife with a weekend project, like hanging a picture. The inventory is now all imported iron with only the most common sizes. The big boxers have acquired them and removed all that kind on inventory. The good hardware stores used to have all sorts of fasteners of all sizes and threads. You touch upon a issue that has infected my location.
