Hi
This old swing saw (think thats what they were called) was used at the Wilson and Stoughton lumber company in Calabogie Ontario. The mill hasn't operated in about 50 years, this was the last piece of machinery there. I unbolted it from its concrete base in the planer mill yesterday and brought it home. Seams to be 100 percent functional. I plan on using it to cut up slabs from my small home built band mill
