This old guy is an important step in my slide down the slope. I had a couple of old machines but was not (yet) committed to the
OWWM idea. I called an ad which listed several machines. The ad was several days old and I knew the chances of a bargain were
slim. The old gent that answered told me that most of it was gone, the only thing left was this old Silver, I thought he meant it
was painted silver! It was a short trip across the county and I got to meet a really cool old craftsman. His shop was immaculate and
he made muzzleloading rifles and shotguns. He seemed to be thinning the herd in his shop but didn't seem to be hanging it up as I
always fear in these situations. The saw runs like a champ! I have added some pretty serious guards since these pictures were taken,
so it's not quite as beautiful, but it's less likely to devour some one. The saw came to my seller from the Marietta Furniture Co. in Marietta Ohio.
