Another C-list find just a mile from my office.
The C-list add was 2 hours old when I saw it Saturday afternoon. LOML was sleeping, and I've been stretching the Iron budget lately so I figured this one was probably over before it began. Surprised I was when she hardly blinked, and MORE surprised when I got a call back Sunday from the seller.
The sellers listing said it ran fine but they just don't use it any more. The saw was in an architectual mill work shop, and he mentioned
they had switched over to CNC.
It is direct drive with a Lincoln 5 HP 875 RPM motor. I ran the blade speed calculation and got 8,243 FPM.
