THIS MACHINE IS NO longer mine. I no longer own it, it has been sold and gone for two years now due to a shop move and downsizing. It was a great saw and a beast to operate, lot of fun.

I recently acquired this saw (4.24.15) from a friend of mine. I paid $200.00 as he wanted it gone, along w/what appear to be two extra new blades, he needed the floor space, etc. The saw has a 25 1/2" stroke, the deck meas. 36x48x30" high, and the motor is a DeWalt badged 5 hp, 3425 rpm, 220/440 v, 3 ph beast. Note after market kick back/blade guard. The ram's bearings are a bit stiff and hesitant in mid stroke. I'm hoping that w/some use and a little heat from the wood stove, that things will improve. A lot of the electrical work to get it running has been done, a starter has been installed/mounted to the saw table base, the final connection is in the near future. This was not an easy saw to move. It was loaded w/a forklift seen in one of the photos below, but getting it off of my friend-Matt's Ford pickup, outside of the shop's garage door entrance was an exercise worthy of the engineers of ancient Egypt and the pyramid builds. A die lifter, cherry picker, lots of blocking and patience were used. More discussion and photos of the saw can be seen/read here: http://www.owwm.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=160305
