Picked this up at an auction sale. Don't know much about it other than it was really cool! It seems to be a cross between a swing saw and a radial arm saw. There are 2 articulating arms that pivot on the motor mount allowing the head to come strait across the material similar to a radial arm saw rather than a swinging action like a swing saw. The motion of the head seems to be much more tight with less travel than a radial saw would have. If anyone knows much about these I'd appreciate it.
