Dale, I have a suspicion McPhersons imported them in for a while and rebadged them as a McPhersons machine, recently I have seen a small bandsaw that was a Delta machine with a McPhersons Badge also for sale on ebay, I think it sold for $150, missing the motor.

I thought it was a rebadge, even the ones above came under three different branding designation, Delta, Delta Rockwell, Delta Milwaukee and Rockwell. So there was some form of co branding/manufacture.

You can see there was some changes to the belt guard.

Thought you might like the manual/maintenance guide. 2740 Delta Milwaukee.pdf

Delta 40-440 VS 24″ Scroll Saw

This saw is often thought of as being the best scroll saw ever designed, right up there with the Powermatic. My saw has the variable speed attachment which is nice. The motor is original Delta with the shaft cover and is a Double-Duty single phase. Uses a No. 716 steel stand for this saw.







Potentially date it here by part number:

Dale, Thanks for the links, they could prove to be very handy !
Here are some Pic's of that bandsaw I mentioned earlier, pretty sure its a US machine as well.......
