If you have information to add to this entry, please contact the Site Historian.

In about 1928 this company apparently made a 14" bandsaw. At this writing we have never seen a surviving example and it is possible that the saw never actually made it to production.

Information Sources

The bandsaw was written up in the January 1928 issue of Building Age and National Builder. Thanks to Jeff Burks for sending us a scan of the writeup.
