All told, there have been 13 loads so far. I found some warehouse space and took them. They wanted to send me 10 tractor trailer loads in 2005. The third party group did not want to stock as many parts. You could no longer call Delta and get them to either send or make the part for you. “When Delta was sold to Black and Decker in 2004, they went to a third party service parts supplier. By the time I would clear some space, the next tractor trailer would show up. I had parts everywhere, even though I scrapped a lot of parts that I felt were not worth stocking. My basement, garage, shop and yard were all full. “Before long, I had two tractor trailer loads of parts delivered to my home. Since I was unemployed at the time, I decided to go into the obsolete parts business. Perhaps because of that, I was contacted in 2002 by someone from Delta looking for someone who might be interested in acquiring obsolete parts. “On Badger Pond I had a reputation for machine rebuilding, and had as much interest in that as in actual woodworking. I used to post regularly on the now extinct Badger Pond message board, but at present, woodworking is currently in hiatus I’m just too busy. After my daughter was born, I chose to be a stay at home father doing hobby woodworking on the side. “By training,” John told me, “I am a civil engineer, and worked for Phillips Electronics for about six years after college.

How John went from occasional woodworking to the somewhat unique position of being the “go-to guy” for vintage Delta parts is perhaps even more astounding than the staggering number of parts he currently warehouses. For those of us who have ever tried hunting down parts for discontinued tools, or gone through the grief of hearing a manufacturer tell us they no longer stock parts for a tool we love, this is no small thing. Instead, you will find something that may be far more valuable, at least to us woodworkers: a remarkably handy site where you can buy vintage parts for your old Delta, Delta/Milwaukee and Rockwell/Delta tools. John Weber has a website called Weber Woodworking, but if you go there expecting to see his woodworking prowess, you are going to be disappointed.
