Comments:
Recently purchased it from A small church workshop in Seattle, Washington. It has a sticker on the casting indicating that it was serviced in the past by Buckner Weatherby Machinery in Seattle. It runs, and the wheels have perfect alignment and travel. The steel plate behind the upper wheel is bent and cracked, so it will be replaced soon. However, it somehow doesn’t impede the travel of the wheel at all. I’ve so far stripped the base and am prepping it for paint.

Comments: Main body of the saw. Looks rough but runs wheel and true. Base was removed already to begin restoration.
