Picked this H and A swing saw up in Waukesha Wisconsin from a semi-retired woodworking/cabinet shop owner. He had picked it up over 30 years ago from a very old wood shop in Milwaukee that is still in business. The name escapes me, as I should have written it down. Anyway, I am the third owner. Has all of its original paint on it. Needs a little work, The cast aluminum saw guard needs a look, it is loose. It is a Surty MFG company out of Chicago. Has a GE 3 phase motor on it and a Square D on/off switch. Price was fair.
