Comments:

This was my first DeWalt RAS, found after I'd discovered and poked around the DeWalt RAS forum. I spotted an unspecific mention of a "dewalt radial saw" in a craigslist ad for a garage sale that had happened a few weeks earlier, but responded to it anyway. Turned out they hadn't sold it, and it belonged to the poster's elderly uncle, who bought it new in 1962. It came with a 5gal paint bucket full of miscellaneous blades and other accessories, and I didn't even bother haggling over the $50 they asked.

The owner said it was 120V, but had a 20 amp plug. I didn't recognize the shape of the plug, so I did some research, and found it was actually a 220V 15 amp. I opened up the wiring, and sure enough, it was wired for 220V. Runs like a dream, so I'm sure he just forgot what kind of outlet it was. Besides replacing the plug and dusting/wiping surfaces, I restrained myself from further restorative work until I had given my stepdad the 925E I bought him for his bday (early December), and we started restoring them together.
