Comments:
Purchased this saw in Gloucester, VA on 03/26/2019 for $200 from an older gentleman whose father was the original owner and purchased the saw new in 1950 to build their house and garage. Unfortunately, the legs of the saw were long gone which had me bummed. Also missing was the kickback pawl. Otherwise, mechanically the saw runs great. Plenty of power and got it dialed in to split a gnat's hair.

Probably will do a light restoration when I need to address anything down the road, but for now, the saw is in service and cutting as is.
