Some guy who heard I was looking for vintage tools and called me up after checking out my website. He had this saw for years. It was his dad's originally and then his son used it for a few years before bringing it back when he bought a newer one. They both obviously kept it in very nice shape. It looks like it has had no abuse at all. The price was discussed and before long he had more space and I had more cool junk. What sold me the most was the fact they kept it in such nice shape. Of course the original base was a score too!! Not to mention the fence and mitre fence. This saw runs very smoothly and cuts very well. Even the fence slides back and forth like butter. I did slap a little matching gray on the base. Since the backside of the base has more room and the motor is a double shaft I might add something else to use that extra space sitting there.

Comments: Luckily it had the original cast iron base legs with the Beaver emblem cast into them.

Comments: The blade guard could use a little adjustment. The table top also required a little rust removal but did clean up nice.

Comments: I assume the slot is in case you wanted to mount the motor backside of the saw. I will be mounting something else on the base as there is more room. After all space is the final frontier!
