Comments:

I wasn't concernd about detail on these shots.
just wanted it to be black & white.
not sure what this old machine once did
it is in a mill no longer in business.like much of
the wood mills that at one time employed hundreds

I looked this up .it is a yates 281 band saw that would rip wood up to 300 feet per minute.first made in 1919.
