Comments:
This saw was my Dad's saw back in the early '60s and represents my first memories of being in the workshop with him (although I was a toddler back then). Sometime in the early '70s this saw was caught in a flood, was no longer operational and proceeded to rust for many decades afterwards. After my Dad passed away, I took this saw with the intent of some day restoring it to its former glory. At that point, one word described the condition of the saw, "rust"! After many years of procrastination and locating a few damaged/missing parts, I have finally completed the restoration project. My only regret is that I did not take "before" pictures, as this would truly show the complete transformation from its neglected state. Enjoy the pics of a restored Craftsman/King-Seeley 103.22180 9" table saw. It has been tuned and cuts wonderfully.
