Delta unisaw
Hi there! So I got sold a delta unisaw on the promise that the bearings needed replacement. Upon tearing down the saw I realized the pully and set screw had come loose and the key/ screw had thinned out the shaft to the point of it being un usable. Aside from that the saw seems to be in exelent shape but I don't have $200-300 to replace this part. 422-04-303-5001 does anyone know of another arbor that would fit or work with out spending to to much money. Or is it suck it up and buy the new part?
Much thanks

Replacement screwdriver farrells
I always pick up old wood handle screwdrivers when I see them at swap meets in estate sales except when the ferralls are missing.
Anybody have any good replacement ideas? I know 357 magdad uses shell casings but I don't have access to those.
