I do not own this saw. I saw the ad for it (located in the southern tier area NY) on a popular selling site. I reached out to the owner seeking permission to post their photos and to get a bit more information. This is part of our exchange "I see that saw is the 8" tilting arbor saw. For them to advertise like that, it must have been a new development, as it was for me. By that I mean that the previous table saw I had once belonged to my grandfather, who passed away in 1962. That saw was a Sears, with a tilting table. I used that for many years, until the neighbor of my parents gave my dad this H&A saw. My dad gave it to me, and to be able to tilt the arbor and blade rather than try to work with a tilted table was great. I would guess that I've had this saw since the 1980s, and prior to that it belonged to my parent's neighbor."

Many thanks to the owner for the additional photos, information and permission to use.
