Another great Craigslist find. I was planning in only tuning it up and when I repainted the base I couldn't stop myself. She ended up getting all new bearings and a rebuilt motor. I was very glad to be able to save the original motor? I would have been bummed to put a modern motor on such a beautiful old saw. I couldn't be happier. I recommend keeping your eyes out for one, before they are all gone...

Now to keep my eyes out for a retirement light.
