While killing time to avoid being too early for a client meeting, stopped at nearby garage sale today. Found this DJ scroll saw in the corner. A quick look at everything else and $10 later, we're on our way. God knows, last thing I need is another scroll saw. Probably paid too much on top of it, but what can I say. Its a sickness.

This is a Model 30, Zephyr-named, saw by Darra-james/Tool-Kraft. Construction is aluminum. 18" throat. 11" wide x 14" deep table. Dirty, but complete including crankcase dip stick. I am guessing is its from the 40's because of aluminum body (post-war miracle metal). No dirty paper on OWWM site and my info files only cover 50s/60s.

Into the rat hole for now. Will update when saw is cleaned and when I have additional history.
