This bandsaw came from south central Pennsylvania, to my shop in Western Kentucky, in 2022. My step son brought it to me, after I made arrangements with the seller in Pennsylvania, he lives only 20 miles from where I found this for sale on Facebook marketplace. It was in good shape, and only needed new bearings on the wheels, and thrust bearing. I replaced the old brittle tires with new rubber tires, it needed a left blade guard, and new power cord. I disassembled everything, cleaned, primed, painted, and polished everything that needed it. I kept the original pull/push power switch. I once thought about changing it to a modern switch, but decided to keep it original. It has the original 1/3hp motor. I added a retirement light, and delta fence and rails. It had the belt cover with it, which are sometimes missing. I put it on a BORA mobile base for easy moving.
