I'm helping at a auction this weekend that has a number of very old tools. Some
that interest me are below. Does anyone have more info then I could find on
Google and a old tool site. Thanks
Rockwell Delta 20" bandsaw model 29-3x0 converted to single phase 220
Foley bell planer-molder 12" x 6"
Rockwell delta shaper which appears to be in good condition. I don't think I
have much use for a shaper but I maybe wrong.

old delta shapers tend to be good, but there have been some pretty
light ones made. if it's one of the heavy machines and you can get it
cheap enough, go for it. you'll be happy with what it can do.

Those old Rockwell/Delta bandsaws are excellent. I'd pay more for one
of those in good condition than I would for a new one any day. I've
only used 14" ones, but I can't imagine they made the bigger ones to a
lower standard.
