Comments:

I recently purchased this saw from the nephew of the original owner- who was still using the saw. I believe the table is original. I am dating the date of manufacture based on the serial number of the motor- 59010040.

I plan to restore it, and I may even blog about the process. For now, I've just done the very basic clean up. I'll get back to the restoration after I finish a couple projects which I am woefully behind.
