Comments:

mostly complete machine. missing fence, mitre gauge, motor, and table locking pin. orginal color was black. blade size is 116" lower wheel is driven by oilbase gearbox. main gear is phenolic with key (3/16"?). replace original tension spring with yellow ( 15% compression) die/ mold spring. spring determines tension rather than acting as shock absorber ( ie impossible to fully compress spring )

mounted 1hp motor (sidesaddle) to reduce RPM to about 1100
