Rockwell Delta Milwaukee 6 inch Jointer

This is a heavy cast iron machine with a 32 inch bed. On one side it has a red nameplate that says it was manufactured by Rockwell serial no. 90-1129. On the other side is a red name plate that says Delta Milwaukee. I can find no model number. It is a great machine and has served me well. I'm curious about the connection between Rockwell, Delta, and Milwaukee.

Found your question and picture and I have the same question about the history of the Rockwell/Delta company. I recently found and bought the same model jointer (mine is s/n 95-7412) and it's beaut. After changing the knives I am loving the performance of this little gem.
