I was out to buy an air compressor from a guy on Craig's list. I saw the 141 in his garage and he said he was also selling the saw. He claimed he could not get the blades for it, that 95" blades were not available. In the manor of playing fair, I told him any size blade can be made and ordered. His disbelief and $50 got me the saw! Yes I did buy the Compressor as well, but that is another story. The saw needed everything including new bearings, new tires, some hardware. In addition I had to make a new lower guide bearing adjuster, blade guard, table taper pin, and a table insert. This to me was a welcome restoration job.
