Machine Information
Serial Number:	4732
Machine Type:	Band Saw
Machine Description:	385C, 9½" Band Saw
Owner:	Bob Secord
Manufacture Date:	Est 1950's
Notes:	Source=Owner's submission. Wheels actually measure 9 1/4 inches. They have a taper to the outside. Mounting new tires - require gluing and clamping and then crowning. These may have had a special tire when orginally manufactured. I can't imagine that the machine owners back then would go through what I did to mount the tires. See my post on this band saw for intire process.
