Comments:
This is my band saw after the restoration. I tried to stay with a close to the original gray. The new tires are of urethane. Note that this is truley the machine in the craftsman 1938 catalog which can be downloaded from this site as the illustration clearly shows that the wheel guards are independent of each other and are removed individually via the 4 black knobs rather than the more common swing out variety.
