I found this at a local flea market.New bearings and tires. Mounted on a Delta table saw stand. Motor is 3/4 hp 1725 rpm with sleeve bushings( bearings). The only problem I see with this, is finding 78" blades. I want to add a riser block so I can use 80", but I'll have to figure out how, with the type of bolts in the raising mech.** I won't have to put a riser on thanks to Chuck at Mountain & Plains Machinery in Denver.**He's sending me a couple of 78" blades at a very reasonable price. Thanks to Chuck I don't have to alter this machine.
