Found this on eBay 2 hours before ending. I submitted a lowball bid and, to my surprise, won it. It has the 1905 patent date cast into it, but the feet are the fancier design that were phased out by the time the 1906 catalog was printed. So, it must have been manufactured after Jan. 3, 1905 and before the 1906 models went into production, probably Fall of 1905. The table is sitting on a table saw listed by the same seller. Unfortunately, the motor for the table saw was also used to drive the band saw. I contacted the buyer of the table saw and he said I could have the motor pulley that drove the band saw. I'll have to wait and see if that pans out. He bought the saw for the motor and hasn't decided if he's going to keep the entire saw. I will post better photos and the serial number when I get it home from Ohio.
