Picked up on E-bay, $213.00, rusted up and pretty ugly. Fully restored to everyday usage. Runs at 3500 fpm for smaller blades, 5500 fpm for the resaw blades. Wheels are trued and balanced but have a little wobble. Re-pouring the lower Babbit bearing is on the horizon. The chain supported guide/height adjustment appears to be original. Using Carter guides at the moment. Was pulled out for some long resaw stuff as a favor, figured it was time to photograph the monster. Usually tucked up against the back shop wall, with a seven foot cutting limit.
