How to identify the model # of an old Delta saw? - Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Message Board

Hi folks,
I'm new to the forum. I have an old Delta Milwaukee Scroll Saw, 24 inch, that I believe is from the early 1950's. The serial number is 104-6693. It looks like a series 40 when I compare looks and part numbers on the Delta PM 1512 Operating and Maintenance Instructions.
How can I tell the actual Model number?
Thanks!

The easiest way would be to post a couple of pictures and I'm sure somebody here will know what model it is.

hope I got this correct.

Most of the time, manufactures put the model number on the same plate that has the serial number on it. The plate is on the top of the motor in your pictures.

Hi ship4u - take a look at this page link.

This looks to be your saw except that it includes the optional accessories. Curiously enough the motor is listed as an accessory!

Hope this helps
