I bought this from a sailor in Long Beach. It's my second. The first was called a 4" Homecraft Deluxe in 1974 or so. Appears to be the same. Took a midnight ride to Long Beach to retrieve this unit. The gent I puchased it from was leaving to sail around the world on a 70 footer. Got to see my great uncle "Ob", who has been a very prolific woodworker since he was a boy. He actually has an American Boy scroll saw that has been around my family more than 80 years. Thanks to all who have helped me and came before me.

Saturday, 4/14/2007. Didn't believe all the swarf replies. Had to find some first hand. Thanks,
