Two different 12" band saws by Davis and Wells have surfaced in the past year on the OWWM forum. As only one of those has been posted here, and this one I spotted on Craigslist (I don't own it; the photo is the seller's) differs from that one I figured it was worth posting here. The motor mount appears to be cast with the frame. I don't know what to make of the asymmetric table.
