Comments:
That was my grand father Beaver 1200 table saw, he passed away 25 years ago, and the saw was kept in my uncle basement, when that uncle passed away too, I put a hand on the rusty saw and that was my project to give life to the beautiful saw. I also have an original dado blade. My grand father build nice hardwood furniture for his 5 childs with that saw, I know this tool is able to cut right, I, now have to prove, me too i'm able...
