Picked up this saw locally. I wasn't looking for another band saw (much less a small one) but the design of this one just spoke to me. I believe it's a fairly early manufacture with the Topeka, IN designation. The saw looks to be complete and in overall solid condition. The "self-lubricating" oilite bearings are a first for me and the wheels still spin very smoothly.

Sprungers are relatively uncommon and I'm glad I picked this one up to join its 20" scroll saw cousin that's been sitting alone for years. Should make for a fairly easy, fun project.
