Comments:

Bought this saw from Patrick Leach, March 2004
Saw was originally owned by J.H. Ross, who was the shop teacher at
Belmont Hill School, in Belmont, MA.

Patrick was selling off all of the hand tools and power tools for
Mrs. Ross, after he had died in his 80s. The house was a beautiful
antique home off Garden street near Harvard Square. Mrs. Ross wanted
her husband's tools to continue making furniture with their new owners.
It was great to meet her as I picked up the bandsaw and a newer (General)
tabletop drill press
