Comments:

Acquired this machine from a friend of over 50 years. His father won this combo machine at a Trade Show back in 1957 and then passed down to his son. Restoration started a few weeks ago with rust treatment, paint, new table saw blade, anti-kick back splitters and emergency STOP bump switch installed. Motor is original 3/4 hp that sounds and performs fantastic. Saw blade is square to table and on the money front and back of blade to fence, no adjustments were needed. Items lost with time or never purchased as accessories: ball bearing caster at right side of cabinet, saw guard w/splitter/kick-back fingers, motor cover at right side of cabinet and miter gauge stop rods.
