Starb0y Posted June 7, 2019 Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 I've been looking for parts for the top blade holder. I working with one day and it just blew up. I've contacted Delta but of course they discontinued them. Checked the web but can't seem to find anything that works. Any aftermarket kits? Has this happened to anyone else? Please advise.

JustLarry Posted June 8, 2019 Report Share Posted June 8, 2019 What model Delta do you have? OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmmcrafts Posted June 8, 2019 Report Share Posted June 8, 2019 Since you said it exploded into pieces.. I'm assuming it have the old style quickset ll blade clamps on it.. They are no longer available.. That said.. New packs of replacements show up on eBay quite often.. also.. watch garage sales for used parts saws etc.. many times a saw will be lightly used and only $25 - 50. if you get the right model saw they used that clamp on both top and bottom so then you'd have a replacement and a spare, LOL There is also a guy online that sells NOS Delta parts.. you might check with him.. Site is www.mikestools.com If I remember correctly since its been about 15 years ago I restored my fathers old saw that he wore out.. and he was a source for parts for the old saw..I keep that old saw around just because it's his first saw and it is a keepsake of one of his favorite saws that I keep in memory of him.. Best of luck finding one.. You'll find one sooner or later but you might want to just get a new saw.. since parts are getting hard to find for them..

kmmcrafts Posted June 8, 2019 Report Share Posted June 8, 2019 I also should mention.. You might not have broke the clamp.. it may very well have just fallen apart.. If you can find all the pieces you may be able to put it back together.. also.. they sometimes will have the individual pieces available.. and might be able to buy all the pieces and put a new clamp together.. Just a thought.. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
