>>MACHINE<<
Atlas Press 7", tilt-arbor, ball bearing, bench saw.
Arbor: 1/2" Pulley: 1½" V
Miter groove: 1/2" x 1/8"
Cast iron top (p/n TS7A-2), stamped steel base, die-cast aluminum carriage components.
A previous owner painted the base cabinet gray, but the top and fence are the characteristic Power-King green.
The design is similar to the Atlas/Power-King 282.

>>HISTORY<<
September 2008:
I picked this saw up at ArnFest 2008. No further info known.
I believe this saw was previously a Power-King design, based off the model 270.
It was possibly rebadged after the Atlas acquisition of Power-King.

UPDATE-August 2012:
I no longer own this saw--gave it to a fellow OWWMer.
