Bought from University of Florida on auction. Saw sat outside at UF for over ~3 years after they obtained it at gov't auction, had trouble getting tires & finally auctioned it off. First picture left before starting refurbish of machine with table, trunions and bracket removed for transport and to repair cracked braket; right after sandblast of cabinet. Next is front and back of completed saw after paint, all new bearings, new tires, new switch & VFD to power 3ph motor. Third, is repaired (pinned & brazed) bracket mounted along with polished lower blade guides. Last photo is of restored name plate which was severely faded as can be seen in original saw photo.
