My dad dropped this off at my house yesterday

Its a Delta 10" commercial radial arm saw. Can crosscut, rip, miter and compound miter. Its an older model but its been in his garage for 12 years and only used once. He's also gonna drop off a older cast iron table Craftsman 10" table saw.

I was gonna buy both of these eventually but he just saved me at least $1000. He said he paid $1100 for this saw back in the day. It needs a new table for it due to a water leak in his garage but thats fairly easy to make a new top.

How long of a cut can you make with that?

Looks pretty nice //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

crosscut i think is about 12-14", rip is however big you can handle. I'll leave the long cuts to the table saw tho....i hear ripping with a radial can be a *****

Oh that's pretty cool, I'm not exactly picturing how the rip would work.. (Like a table saw with the blade coming from the top???)

just turn the saw part 90 degrees and the saw blade remains stationary and you just feed the sheet instead of moving the saw across a stationary piece of wood

Finally used it a bit today...works like a charm. I still need to build a table for tho. Looks like i'll use 3/4" MDF, 2 layers thick
