Comments:

The Jig Saw was originally ordered by the Frank E. Jones Machinery Corp. of Los Angeles, CA., for the Clark County School District in Las Vegas, Nevada.
When retired from the School District it was purchased by a private party, who was going to put it to use in a sign business, do to a death in the family he was forced to sell it before he had a chance to restore or use it. Erdman Door & Specialty bought it for $350.00, and has brought it back to original condition, and are now using it in their shop.
