Comments:
A rather tired bandsaw found in a wood factory in Richmond South Africa. Still operating though. Bandsaw is 1948 vintage. Cover label indcates Delta Milwaukee. Fitted with double shaft Rockwell motor. Owned by Guy Pellowe.

Added 18 Feb 2010. Late January 2010, Guy Pellowe contacted me and asked if I would do anumber on his bandsaw. I agreed if he paid for material used and delivered it to my home, which he did. The saw had detoriated from the original photos posted some years earlier. I stripped the saw right down and revamped it completely. The saw came up beautifully and having had the motor rewired recently rang sweetly. Here are the 2010 pictures of the same saw.
