Machine Information
Serial Number:	385-6153
Machine Type:	BandSaw
Machine Description:	84TTN2316A 9-1/4" Band Saw
Owner:	Chuck Hammond
Manufacture Date:	1948
Notes:	Source=Owner's submission. The closest I have been able to date this is 1949, via the 1949 Powr-Kraft General Line Catalog. I believe it is actually a year or two older, as the model number listed in the '49 catalog is not a "TTN" (Darra-James?) and it's a 2316M suffix, where mine is an "A" suffix.
