Bought of Ebay in 06. Had been left outside long time. Top badly rusted and pitted. Saw had been rebuilt in May of 1971 by The Tumpane Co. of GA inc. of Macon Georgia. Saw has been modified some. One of the most interesting modifications is the arbor shaft has been turned down to 1" form the factory 1 1/8" and then the arbor washers shimed to 1". I did a complete tear down, sandblast, checked motor and had the origional mag switch rebuilt. Filled and laquered top. I was a little dissapointed that it was hard to adjust. Factory did not have much fine adjustment. This saw has a lot of use and took some time to adjust.I had never used a big table saw before and I didn't have a good 16" blade so used a good 18" combination blade. Took some getting use to. I was suprised how much air comes off the top of blade. No UNI but will have to do.
