I purchased this machine from a liquidation auction for $100.00 (no one else wanted it). The company manufactured chain link fences and used this saw to cut up planks for packing pallets. It originally had a very heavy cast iron table.I didn't realize what a find I had untill I started visiting this site. Sorry I don't have any before pictures, but I hadn't realized anyone at the time would be interested in what I was doing. I took the entire machine apart and repainted and restored it as much as possible. Unfortunately I'm still renovating my shop and the only choice I really had for painting it was rustoleum. I know the color might offend some of the folks who are set on restoring tools to their original condition, but I've worked in shops my whole career and kinda got sick of looking at grey machines all day. I still have a few things to finish on this machine, all the label/plates have to be riveted back on and the wiring must be completed. I'm currently struggling getting my 3phase wiring installed so, really no point in getting this wired up just yet. I'll update the pics when I'm finished.
