This rig converts from what to what. Saw to saw or pin to unpinned? I have a 50's Delta that is missing the upper blade holer will this kit work?

I really don't know if it will work on that saw , but for the price and as fast and easy as it makes changing blades and to get that Delta working it's worth the gamble

Converted my Craftsman scroll saw to pinned to accept either pinned or unpinned; Without knowing what the Delta saw has left it's hard to say if it will work for you

Yes I believe it will fix your problem. You replace the original holders with combination hoders that accept pin or pinless blades. I bought mine because I could not find pinless spiral blades.

If it connects with a single screw like modern ones I will work. I would go to a local store that sells scroll saws and look at the holder and compare. I bought this to replace my factory Porter Cable holder and it works flawless! It can be used as pin in or plain in. Downside to this is you must use an Allan wrench to install and remove the blade, but worth the extra few seconds. It grips a plain in blade so it doesn't slip when you tighten it. The instructions are a little confusing but once you figure them out it is a 5 minute install. Good luck and I hope it works for you, it was a great investment for me as I use my scroll saw daily for part of my woodworking business.

Converts from pinned to unpinned, but you may have to use longer unpinned blades than standard

The kit converts a pin end blade machine to an unpinned blade machine. I used it to convert an older Craftsman to use unpinned blades.

I used this conversion kit to convert my Ferm pinned blade holder to unpinned (with this you can use pinned and unpinned blades).

I put it on a Rockwell 14" saw which is the same as a Delta. Drilled new holes for the pins. That's about it. Other parts fit pretty well. Very satisfied with result.

I got this for my delta commercial table saw. It fit. Only thing is saftey shutoff doesnt fit it. It looks like it fits a variety of things. I could not say for sure, but if it looks close to yours i would try it. Mine works great.

If you can mount it to the saw it will work. Mine is mounted to a 20 year old Delta Contractor saw. I have no idea what the fence/rail system looks like on your saw.

I installed it on my Delta/Milwaukee 14" band saw, which was made back in 1944. If you have a more modern Delta, it will bolt right up, as well.

Yes, it is pinless model. Very easy quick change and easy insertion of blade into holes and re-attachment. You enjoy this saw; just follow directions for tension and speed in the owner's manual. As a high school kid I couldn't use a scroll saw if my life depended on it. I always broke blades and such. Not with this saw. It is a sheer pleasure to use.

It would be best to contact Delta Tech Support directly. They can look it up for you. I've spoken with them before, they are very helpful. Hope you are able to get the parts you need for your saw.

The castings for all common cast iron 14" bandsaws are from the same molds. Each manufacturer drills and machines to their own specifications. That means that unless JET manufactures this saw for Central Machinery, this kit can probably be MADE to work, but will probably require some adapting. To adapt to my Porter Cable, I had to redrill the alignment pin holes on the riser casting, sand down the blade guide post, and modify a couple of other sheet metal parts that did not have holes in exactly the right place. I made it work, but it was not trivial.

Not really sure, I have a Delta cabinet saw with a typical slot for attachments. Most tables are built to accommodate accessories! Hopefully shopsmith is on board. Wish I could be more helpful, my recommendation is to contact Grizzly.

Sounds like the hole is at the lower end of allowed tolerance. Easiest is to return it and get a replacement. If it goes on the spindle but is too tight and you don't want to return it then its likely only a thou or two undersize and a bit of gentle work with an engineers scraper or even a bit of fine emery will take off enough to let it fit smoothly. Any machine shop should have a 5/8" reamer. My saw has a 20mm spindle so I had a local saw shop machine it out to fit that.

I have the same problem. I have a Craftsman 12" 1hp bandsaw and need a riser kit. I don't know if the JET kit will work. If you find one that works, please post. Thanks.

There is a converter for tall shank machines, so you could use this with your machine. But I would get the converter first. I've seen them on eBay and you could check out goldstar tools on the web.

Best to check your book for the part # & go from there...my guess the spindles will fit, but that is all! Belt & blades probably different. Look for a 48" deck rebuild kit

Look for numbers/ letters stamped on the outside of your old chuck. My old Delta had RJ33 on it and the new Woodstock had JT33 marked on it. Not sure what they mean, but 33 in both chucks seemed to match. The new one fits great.
