Comments:

Purchased from my cousins grandfather for the original price he'd paid for it. It was used while building his own home after WWII.
Note the small turnbuckle on the end of the outfeed table. I had noticed that when I used a long or heavy board my cuts would develop a cup along the length of the board. Found that the outfeed table would sag a few thousands on the last half of the cut. I snug the turnbuckle just enough to keep the table from sagging and it only needs adjusting if I adjust the height of the outfeed table.
