ABOUT THE OLD DELTA WORKSHOP

The Old Delta Workshop is committed to preserving the rich legacy of vintage Delta woodworking machines. Our goal is to provide comprehensive education on restoration and maintenance techniques for these classic woodworking tools, as well as offer valuable tips and tricks on their effective use. As an online community, The Old Delta Workshop serves as a platform for woodworking enthusiasts to connect, share their expertise, and cultivate a culture of creativity and craftsmanship in woodworking.

Our YouTube channel will feature host Joshua Billups as he restores a set of vintage Delta woodworking machines to build out the ultimate Old Delta Workshop. He will share restoration techniques and maintenance tips. Additionally, this series will have segments sharing the history of Delta, along with woodworking tips from decades of Deltagram Publications.

Joshua Billups will also host the Old Delta Workshop Podcast, which will focus on the stories of those who share a passion for vintage Delta machines, former Delta employees, and industry professionals who helped establish the legacy of one of woodworking's most beloved and iconic brands.

What else can you expect from The Old Delta Workshop? Every machine restored on our YouTube channel will have companion media, such as enhanced manuals, restoration checklists, step-by-step articles, and more. We are also creating a whole new series of Delta Craftsheets - handy, one-page informational sheets, just like the ones found in each issue of the Deltagram. Over the next few months, we will share more about The Old Delta Workshop and what you can expect starting in December 2024!
