This is in the Wood Research Laboratory at Purdue University. As far as i know it was bought new some time in the 60's. It has a sliding table 2 miter gauges, a fence, and a segment gauge. It even came with a splitter but it has become too worn to use. The red bar at the base of the saw is a home made brake extention to the factory brake. The pad on the brake is worn and just barley works.
