Bought this from a cabinet maker who was planning on restoring it but did'nt have the time. I did the whole restoration over a period of several weeks, tear down, clean, sand blast, new bearings, new tires, new paint. Restoration went smooth especially with the help of R. Vaughan. Thanks again Robert the HSS guide blocks work great! I also made a couple of additional items including a blade guard, belt guard and fence, tire brush bracket, and lamp bracket. This saw runs very smooth and cuts beautifully. A huge upgrade from my sheetmetal Chiwanese 16" BS. Seller did not know the exact vintage but based on some catalogs here at OWWM, I would say it is from the late 30's to early 40's. Can anyone help me to find out the vintage?.
