This bandsaw came from a fellow owwm member who said he had acquired it from the family of the original owner. I left the original paint, but fully restored all other parts of the machine. The stand is a flared-foot Delta stand that I modified to create access for the belt. The 1/4hp Emerson motor that came with the saw is slightly underpowered in use and is likely to be replaced with something slightly larger, perhaps not vintage depending on what I find. All in all, though, a nice machine.
