I bought this on an online action for $175. the photos of it made it look in really ruff shape. from the sticker on it, it looks like it belonged to the Bates Technical college in Washington State. It was listed under metal working machinery, but had wood saw dust in it. It is missing the side table, fence and accessories. the basic saw is complete. it runs just fine, the blade does have a slight wobble to it. I have determined this is coming from the saw and not the blade. it will take an 18" blade but it won't lower it under the table. The throat plate is huge, and has no height adjustment screws; when you make something perfect to begin with, it needs no adjustment later.
