Or check Craigs List you'll see a broad range from rusted junk to good condition.ĥHP is almost certainly 220V are you set up for that? If not then check out the cost to upgrade your electrical service.Īlso consider how you will get any of these options into your workshop Two men can easily put a Craftsman 113-series saw almost anywhere. That same 35-L536 is available for $2900 from Amazon (includes free shipping) or Home depot for $2600 (probably not free shipping). The $500 saws are likely older, and likely need a lot of TLC to bring them up to snuff.Ĭonverting from the older factory fence to a modern Biesemeyer or equivalent will be at least a couple hundred alone. Unisaws have been manufactured since the 1930's and as you can imagine have gone through a lot of evolution over that time. What is a reasonable price for a used Delta Unisaw? I see a lot of posts indicating buying a Unisaw for around $500. I have come across a 4 year old Delta Unisaw 5 hp (I think it is a 36-L536 and will be going to see it soon) with Biesemeyer fence and 52" rip capacity that I can purchase for $1600 with the mobile base. I'm upgrading my table saw from a Craftsaman 3hp 113 series contractor saw I bought new over 20 years ago. Sellers often want to compare to new prices, but they are not willing to offer a warranty either.
If it is in like-new condition, the price will often be a little higher than that. Some say half of what it cost when it was purchased. Some folks say a reasonable price is half of new (what is costs today). Occasionally, you can find R2R Unisaws for that price (and folks that catch those deals are eager to brag about them), but not that often, particularly near larger cities with more potential buyers. Most $500 used Unisaws are the older design, and often not in ready to run condition.
I don't recall when Delta moved Unisaw mfg offshore, but it was well after mine was built, and I believe before the new version was introduced. 3HP 1ph, w/52" Unifence & 3rd party mobile base, for which I think I paid around $1500. Mine is an early 1990's Unisaw that I purchased new, and have enjoyed ever since. These saws have both blade height and blade tilt adjustments on the front of the saw cabinet, and the mechanism inside is quite different.Įarlier Unisaws had the tilt adjustment on the side of the cabinet, and the height adjustment on the front, and had not changed significantly mechanically for ~70 years, up until the new version came out. Keep in mind that around about 2012(?), Delta made radical changes to their Unisaw design, and the cost went up appreciably.
