hi
like your choice of saw, however I'm afraid it wont happen, Delta stopped making 240 volt machines some years ago, so the only chance you will have is with a second hand one.There are few often available on E bay and would suggest that you look for something like a 40-540 it has variable speed but is not quite as fast as the one you already have. Also the Delta saw that you have left a link to is a copy of the Dewalt 788 of which also turn up from time to time but can be expensive even second hand. That said the Excalibur is available new from Axminster Tools
good Luck
Dave

Ha Paul
that's a great first attempt, as you can see by Rays example, taking it through inkscape to trace the bitmap makes all the difference and of course allows you to change the outline colour to red. The only thing I would say is to work on those islands a bit.
But yes excellent work,I have only been making patterns for about 2 years and that was all from the help of the members on this site, so keep it up and keep asking.

Hope you have a good day if the weather is anything like it was for the games you will be fine.
Marg
If Terry ever gets that $86K, the next best thing is to bring him here, "just Jane" is down at east kirkby, although grounded you can still go on her for taxi runs

no real connection to family, I just liked the pattern, there was a method in the madness though. We live on the East Coast and the majority of the Summer visitors are from Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire, both big mining areas, so I stack cut this one "3" and left the other two in the window of the local craft shop, they both sold within two days and have now cut a further three
