Machine was purchased at an estate sale for $5.00. It was covered in dirt and debris, under a bench. The blade guard was missing, and the fence is a homebuilt replacement. The P.O. must have had some machining experience, as it appears well made, and suitable for the machine.
The machine was disassembled, cleaned, sandblasted, repainted, and reassembled. It was mounted on a Harbor Freight base, stiffened with some 2 x 8 top and lower shelf. The motor was another estate sale purchase. The blade guard was made from 3/4" plywood, patterned after the guard on my present machine.

The machine runs smoothly, makes a good clean cut. It's going to be a welcome addition to my shop.
