I love older tools. I bought a old Delta scroll saw years ago and have used it trouble free. It has one plastic part other than the knobs, that part finally broke and Delta does not offer replacements. I did a bit of research and was able to 3D print a new part at my local library for 50 cents! Don't give up on old tools! I made a video if you are interested.

Nice one. Did you find the 3D model online or did you have to make that?

I made the model with a program called Sketchup. Not to difficult to learn. Im going to post the file on Thingiverse, an online library of printable parts.
