This saw is the first of these with a manufacturer badge. This was (of course) immensely helpful in identifying all the others.
It also introduced us to the fact that this manufacturer made still another machine.
I don’t own this saw either, though we are working on changing that at present. If I do manage to acquire it I will update the photos here.

Noteworthy is the presence not just of a flat belt pulley, but the remnants of a fork at the back of the saw which I suspect was to permit shifting between the tight and loose pulleys when this was powered by a lineshaft. Only half of that pulley assembly is still present.
Also this saw has a round post supporting the upper blade guides. The cast riser is original and does not extend past the saw to support a motor, as does the riser/base on the fourth of these saws (not yet posted here). Except for the missing table and trunnion this saw appears quite complete.
