Found this on CL for $30. Turns out the PO is an OWWMer (or is it now a VMer?) He originally purchased the saw to fix up and give to his son, and also because it had a Delta lamp that he wanted. His son decided he didn't want the saw, so that's how I acquired it. Has a cute little Whirl-A-Way motor that just needed new bearings. I whipped up a stand for the saw and put in on a mobile base my stepson salvaged from the neighbor's garbages, and added a cheap lamp. I did a little bit of minor cleaning, but it is a good candidate for a future resto because of some rust and peeling paint and stains. Otherwise it runs great! I don't know the exact age of the saw, but based on the serial # badge, I'm guessing it's either pre or post WWII. Now if I can just convince the PO that the saw misses it's lamp and wants to be reunited, all will be good!
