Consider Another Grinder
I bought one of these to replace a Delta 6in grinder that was stolen a little over a year ago.The 8in grinder seemed like a deal.I do a lot of plane and chisel sharpening and wanted something that would dish out the cutting edge a little less.This it does.However it absolutely stinks otherwise.I bolted it to my bench and it vibrated so badly anything that is on the bench walks itself off no matter how heavy.Not only are the stones not round, but are out of true by at least 1/16 inch!Delta sent me new stones...same problem.I bought new stones...same problem...but less.It turns out that both the stones and the shaft wobble!Delta would not warranty the grinder unless I sent it to them and pay the shipping both ways!This was as much as the cost of the grinder..Not only that, but the clear spark gaurds had huge stickers on them, that when peeled off, left all their adhesive on the gaurd so you couldn't see through them. Water would not remove the adhesive and anything that could, dissolved the plastic as well. Delta sent me new ones...for a different grinder!Delta is off my list for tools as long as they keep having things made in China.I cant image what their other stuff made in China must be like and I'm not willing to take the chance. ...

I like using 80 grit to trim near my pattern mark, and then switch to a finer grit to polish it smooth.

Editorial Review

This benchtop saw from Delta's Shopmaster line offers accuracy and reliability in an easily portable package. It has a 13 amp, 120-volt motor for plowing through cuts and features a 17-1/4-by-26-inch table that allows for a 9-7/8-inch maximum rip to the right of the blade. There's a self-aligning rip fence that locks in parallel to the blade and a T-slot groove in the table so you can use a standard miter gauge for crosscutting. It also has a see-through blade guard with an integral splitter and antikickback fingers, and a toggle-style on/off switch. This model comes with a hefty steel stand so you can use it anywhere you need it. While this is a great saw for do-it-yourselfers working on smaller projects, people needing more rip capacity and a more powerful motor will want to consider a step up to Delta's TS220 Shopmaster saw. --Brian Trinen ...

Arrived unadjusted and unadjustable
The instruction manual says "The blade was adjusted parallel to the miter gauge slots at the factory." Mine wasn't. One side of the blade was 1/8 inch closer to the slot than the other (not just incaccurate, but apt to cause the blade to bind and cause a dangerous accident.) I discovered why it wasn't adjusted when I proceeded to follow the instructions for adjusting it myself: the range of adjustment wasn't sufficient to correct for the misalignment. Perhaps a factory worker discovered this and decided to ship it unadjusted anyway. Needing the saw immediately, I removed the motor assembly and remounted it with 5/16" washers serving as shims, and was then able to adjust it adequately. I wasn't expecting a precision tool at this low price, but this one wasn't even usable when I received it.

a cheap, but decent saw
I bought this delta saw about a year ago for an simple remodle job.I was just getting into woodworking and didnt have much money, so the delta looked pretty nice.after getting hime and putting it together if found that the stand was totaly unsatasfactory...so built my own out of heafty 4x4's and 3/4" plywood, this made a huge difference.Even after this it is STILL just a hundred dollar table saw, u get waht u pay for somewhat underpowered and very noisy but it got the job done.I would recomend it for anybody who desparatly needs a table saw but only has a hundred bucks...u get a decent saw.if u can, go bigger because this wont cut it if your doing anything serious.i would definatley considrer getting a new blade, preferably a thin kerf because of the power.

Worth the money
I have to agree with some of the previous reviews.This is a good, portable table saw.I wanted an inexpensive and portable table saw to get my workshop started.The low price, light weight and included stand fitted my needs exactly.

I have used this saw to build some bookcases and to rip some nailers for a crown molding project, as well as some other smaller jobs.So far this little Delta has powered through everything with only the problems that would come from any other lightweight, portable saw.I did pick up a thin kerf Freud Diablo after-market blade.This saw and blade combo makes VERY SMOOTH cuts while the included blade is great for chewing through stock when a little wave doesn't matter.

This is not a cabinet saw with an ultra-accurate fence.Don't rely on the included rule.Get out your T-square and set the fence.Once the fence is set, I've found that it stays in place.

Yes,the mitre slots are smaller than standard and that is a pain in the backside but with a little creativity and some time at the bench grinder my after-market Bench Dog feather boards fit like a dream.

The table is small but the portability of the saw was important to me.I stopped at Sears and picked up two Craftsman roller stands and the small table is no longer an issue.The beauty is that all three pieces don't take up much space in my garage.

The saw is lightweight and has a tendency to wander on a smooth surface.A piece of plywood with some 2x4's attached in a square shape solves this problem.Set the stand legs inside the square and your body weight stops the wandering.Make sure that the plywood is long enough so you can stand on it while guiding your work piece through the saw.The plywood leans against a wall behind the rollers and saw and doesn't take up much space in my garage.

So there are is my opinion of this inexpensive, portable saw.My only complaint with the saw is the non-standard mitre slots (this is the reason that it didn't get 5 stars).The other complaints are inherent with all portable table saws.

If you need to make ultra-accurate cuts or power through a ton of hardwood every day, this is not the saw for you.If you do the occasional project and have minimal storage area, this is a great saw with a nice price tag. ... Read more

Not what it appears...
I use my grinder more for sharpening woodturning chisels than anything else.In sharpening those curved gouges, my grinding wheels get divots.

Before I purchased this wheel dresser, I had a round carbo stick that did a good job of removing material but still hard to get a flat square surface.

What you can't see from the picture is that this Delta wheel dresser has a square cross section and is coated with diamond "dust".

While this may seem like a good idea since it would flatten a tall area of grinding wheel at one time, it turns out to not work so well since the grinding wheel is moving so quickly.A thin line of material would be easier to manage as the inch tall cutting surface can be difficult to control (too much bite).

Also of note, the diamond coating on the one I recieved is not flat.There are highspots that leave tiny vertical grooves in my wheel -- especially the white friable wheel.

This is not so good as one typically uses a wheel dresser to remove grooves.

In general I'm dissapointed with this item.I'm not so sure it's better than the carbo stick I bough from sears.I think next time I'll try a wheel dresser from a specialty company like Lee Valley Tool instead a large generic tool manufacturer like Delta. ... Read more

Poor Design
I agree with the other reviewers.This is a poor design, obviously an after thought.I have DJ-15 that is a few years old.I have no intention of drilling holes in it.Also, the outlet is 5 inch, not 4 inch.I sent mine back, I plan to take the suggestion of the other reviewer and tape on a plastic one.Delta makes then for their newer 6 and 8 inch jointers.

PLEASE!
Come on Delta, you can do better than this!

If you plan on buying a DJ-20, buy an inexpensive square table saw dust connector (about 1 ft. x 1 ft.), use 1 in. double sided foam tape (like the kind used to hand posters and such), and stick the connector to the side of the DJ-20.You won't be forced to drill any holes in your new expensive jointer, and you'll get a perfect seal around the connector.

Requires modification to router
My wife ordered this for me, since it was on my wishlist.She had purchased my Delta DJ-20 8" jointer from Amazon for my birthday, nice wife!Anyway, this dust connector is mounted with the included screws, but there are no holes in the side of my DJ-20 jointer.I'm going to have to drill holes in the side of my expensive jointer to use this connector.Would have preferred a simpler solution. ...

Editorial Review

You know you're a real woodworker once you start ogling dust-collection systems--it's the next logical step when you're making more sawdust than you can sweep. There are lots of reasons to bring one of these into your workshop: safety, air quality, and time--you can spend more time making sawdust rather than sweeping it up! This model is a favorite of ours for a few reasons: price, power, and size. You're not going to find many systems at this price that will move 550 cubic feet of air per minute, as this AP300 can with its 3/4-horsepower motor. It's totally portable, too, and at 50 pounds, it totes easily from one tool to the next with a comfortable grip handle. The 4-inch intake hose fits the standard dust chute that comes on most tools, and a nice wide hood will capture chips and dust and debris. One more advantage to this little fellow over a stationary system: it'll hang on your wall for storage, up out of your way--a huge plus for folks with space-challenged workshops. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste ...

Just What I Needed / Almost 5 Stars
This has augmented my central system.For years I had the hassle of a 4" hose hanging down to my Unisaw.It seemed always in the way, catching on long boards when I was cutting or moving them about in the shop.Recently I added a large rear table and had to either re-route a lot of ductwork or put one of these underneath to collect the sawdust.It works fine for me - seems to have plenty of suction.Actually better than a 2HP central system 25 feet away.Do keep in mind this is as small of a dust collector as you can get.It is more than a shop vac but a far cry from a central system.Attaching it to something that puts out a lot of chips (like a planer) will take it to its limits (and fill its bag) quickly.

Years ago, when I first started woodworking I had a green brand of this and it literally was exactly the same machine other than color, and it didn't come with the hose/nozzel accessories.Today that machine sells more more than the AP300 and still doesn't come with the hose or nozzel.

Like the other reviewer I gave it 4 stars because it only offered a 30 micron bag as standard equipment.Other wise I would have rated it 5 stars.

Kinda sucks.......
This new version of the Delta 50-280 isn't as good as the older model. I've had a 50-280 for about 4 years now and it does a real good job of collecting chips/dust from my table saw, band saw, planer, joiner, spindle sander, etc. I move it from tool to tool as I use them, kind of a hassel, but it works well. Thought I would buy another to cut down on the hose moving. Still wanted a smaller unit so I could stash it under a bench out of the way, so ordered an AP300 as the 50-280 is no longer available. This is definitly a much cheaper unit. Even with the standard hose it does not seem to have enough suction to keep up with my Delta planer, chips load up in the dust chute and eventually clog the spaces not directly in front of the four inch outlet. When the inlet of the dust collector clogs up (frequently) it is a real pain to clear it out, and chips are always left in the hose, sometimes a couple of handfulls will not make it to the bag.
Using a can for the larger stuff isn't really an option for me as I'm space challenged.
I'm going to return this dust collector, and take a look at some of the other offerings out there. Delta seems to be getting in a habit of producing duds lately. This is one of them. Can't recommend this tool.

Great for its size
I have limited space so i thought i'd give it a try despite some lower reviews here. But this is the deal.
I have a Porter-cable vacuum that i use with my routers and smaller machines, but i wanted to get something a little bigger and still portable to use with my tablesaw, bandsaw, lathe, planer and jointer. My Rigid shop vac is slightly bettter than useless.
This draws more air and chips than the Porter-Cable as well as my Rigid shop vac. My Porter-Cable vacuum is much better than my Rigid. Although the rigid has a larger diameter hose to pick up larger chips, it's not a very good vacuum.
This portable Delta dust collector draws substantially more debris.
I have no problem with this Delta unit and was pleasantly surprized with it's ability to collect material from all of my machines.
I suggest getting 4" quick disconnects permanently mounted on all of your machines rather than use the Delta kit and/or the screw clamps. Makes swapping back and forth trouble free.
I give this a 4 rather than a 5 since the bag included is only 30 micron. 10 microns and under are what contributes to lung problems. I do use a JDS air filter which picks up the rest of the little stuff.
Actually there's a company called Penn State Industries that makes a portable unit with a 1 micron bag that's more powerful. It's a little over $200. A 1 micron replacement bag is $69.

But if you opt for this you can save yourself some money, it's $119 at Lowes. ... Read more

Saves me MONEY!
Love this filter. Just Vac. it out & its ready to use! Beats blowing money on the throw aways.

Clean Air in a Dusty Woodturning Shop
I turn bowls and hollow forms on my lathe. During the sanding process, massive amounts of dust can be generated creating a large amount of airborne dust. The electrostatic filter in my Delta Air Cleaner traps this dust before it gets a chance to enter the air cleaner. It is easily removed from the unit and is a snap to clean. I've used disposable filters in the past which are either to thin or fill up with dust quickly and have to be discarded after only a short useful period. This new electrostatic filter solves the problem. I highly recommend it. ... Read more

Editorial Review

For those seeking a midsize jointer for the long haul, this 6-inch model is a great find suitable for the professional workplace or serious home woodshop. Powered by Delta's trusted 1-horsepower induction motor, the three-blade drum spins quietly in its cast-iron bed. Adjusting with rack-and-pinion precision, the fence tilts 45 degrees in and out with positive stops at 90 and 45 degrees for beveling and chamfering applications. Delta realizes the use of heavy machinery carries a great risk of injury; consequently, they designed this jointer with a large, easily accessible on/off paddle switch at shoulder height on the right side--a feature for which we have much respect. Thanks to industrial-grade infeed and outfeed tables, even longer 6-inch-wide planks get the support they need as you remove up to 1/2 of an inch of material to the collection port on each pass. So you want to increase your edge on the competition? Delta feels the same way. --Justin Paul ... Read more

Fence Biggest Drawback
If it were not for the cheap, cast aluminum fence I would recommend this. I think if you search enough you'll see that this is the single biggest complaint about this.

Suggestion: hold off until you can afford the next Delta model up (I believe that is the 360). It may be 2X the price, but well worth it. Also, the Ridgid is an outstanding buy at $399.00.

works for me.
i,ve been using this jointer for about two months now and it is a real joy to use. i,ve heard the other reviews that were not to good, but mine is just great.

What's with the pulleys not aligning?
After doing my homework (reading many reviews of 6" jointers in woodworking publications as well this forum), I settled on the Delta.The Jet had caught my eye (I have 3 other Jet machines, and have been impressed with their Quality Control), but in the end I opted for the Delta.

There is no question this is a great 6" jointer, as other reviewers have said.However, there is a design flaw (are you listening, Delta?) mentioned by other reviewers.

Why should I have to reverse the pulleys to get the belt properly aligned?ESPECIALLY SINCE SETUP INSTRUCTIONS EMPHASIZE THE NEED FOR PROPER ALIGNMENT! There, I feel better.

I also have another minor complaint with setup.The third bolt that attaches to the base through the dust chute could be a challenge for big armed, big handed guys.I managed, with very little wiggle room.

Overall, results with this jointer are impressive. Out of the box, the Delta performed flawlessly.No question, I'd give this product 5 stars, if not for the above-mentioned gripes.

I highly recommend purchasing a Delta 22-580K 13" planer to complement the jointer.I did, with no regrets.Now that's a fine product, worthy of 5 stars.

At the end of the day, the jointer and planer make a fine team.
Get past the setup, and this jointer will perform very well for you.No question. ... Read more
