Comments:

Got this from a guy in Oklahoma. She came with two sisters (scroll saw and a sander to be posted as they are restored). It came out of a local school, but was single-phase (1-HP). Good condition, and missing only a couple of small parts. I upgraded from a Chiwanese 6”, which I was happy with, but when this came along, I could not resist. Thanks to Alan Ciemian for the paint formula (in the Wiki). SW will have to make a gallon of it, so be prepared for a little bit of “sticker shock.”

Comments: Couldn't find red knobs (at sane prices anyway), but I like the black now that they're all on.
