Comments:

I acquired this at a public auction in Detroit,Michigan,June of 2007.The saw is 5 h.p.,
220 volts,3 phase.It came with both miter gauages,the stock sliding fence,over head blade guard and the dado arbor.It has a slot in the table right behind the blade for a
spliter but it is missing.The saw looks very much like the Fay & Egan Model 511-B table saw.Both companies were out of Cininnati,Ohio.This saw like the rest of the machinery
that came out of that plant have been painted close to twenty times with the baby blue color.This is the first Towsley tablesaw to be posted to the site.
