Comments:
This was one of only twenty five model 260 tilting table tablesaws that were manufactured by Oliver. In fact it is number twenty four of the series, manufactured in the late 1930's just before they switched over to the tilting arbor design. According to the experts on this site, it is only the second one recorded as still in existence. I located it in a cabinet shop in Massachusetts. It has a sliding table, one remaining miter gauge, and a type F micrometer fence.
