Comments:

Purchased this bandsaw in Suffolk, VA on 11/20/2020 for $500 from the 2nd owner who purchased the saw from the original owner in 1980. All things point to the saw being made between 1945-1947, which matches up to what the original owner told the gentleman I bought it from.

Saw has cast iron wheels and internal parts prefixed with "CBS". The 2nd owner built a custom mobile base that is glassy smooth to roll. Motor is 1hp, 3ph 240v. 2nd owner painted it, and installed new tires over the years. Runs strong and ready to cut.

Comments: As purchased in its final resting place. I didn't realize at this point that I put the saw on the mobile base incorrectly to where the brake wouldn't engage
