Noting the progression in badging for Beaver machines. First one references Callendar Mfg, set into one piece cast AL base of CS-3200 table saw. Second one is identical to first, but references Rockwell, from a 2300 bandsaw. Must have been shortly after 1953 acquisition. Third one shows major cost cutting underway in early Rockwell era, from a 5200 TS, combining screened graphics for everthing, all one one AL plate affixed to (fractured) sheet steel base. Earlier saws had cast bevel scales, chromed iron handwheels, cast iron and bronze innards etc. Not so with the this 5200.
