Comments:
This table saw was purchased in an auction in Vermont. The unusual part of this saw was that it had a 7-1/2 hp motor and would handle a 20" blade. The table sat on some factory installed risers that would allow the 20" blade to be lowered below the table top.
The saw ran well, and was in pretty good condition overall for a 60+ year old machine. However, the controls were old and the paint was beginning to peel, so I decided to restore the saw. Below is a link to the Machine Junkie website that chronicles the rebuild.
