I came across this table saw through a local craigslist add for $75. It was my first piece of OWWM, and certainly not my last.

It was in great shape with mostly just surface rust on the top and a few spots of light pitting. Original paint. I only did minimal restoration, including some light acid on the top to remove the rust but keep the patina. Original switch is mostly there, but the actual switch part is broken off, rendering it virtually useless. Cord on the motor was also changed and the parts under the table were cleaned and lubed with molybdenum disulfide. Also put a new linked belt on. Note: as my first "restoration" I added a few components that I probably wouldn't now, like the new switch and the linked belt. I might change those out eventually.

Came with original blade guard, miter gauge, and fence. Miter gauge is an odd size at 3/4" x 5/16". Fence has a micro-adjusting mechanism, which is pretty slick.

I don't know if the motor is original. It is 1 HP.
