Hey everyone, got this saw years ago, I did some work to it but I've run out of space and already have a bigger saw so I'm ready to let this one go.
Here's what I did:
- cleaned the gearbox and replaced bearings inside of it.
- repainted a few of the parts
- repaired the down feed cylinder
- put on a brand new blade, and bought 1 spare blade
- installed a new pulley as the stock step pulley was missing
- stripped the rust off the main table casting
I got it most of the way but it still could use some work to get it totally complete. It needs:
- adjustment in the spring counterbalance, it almost wants to stay up even when opening the down feed valve
- the cylinder still has a slight leak but I think it's just the fitting I had on hand
- no guards
- no switch
Motor is 110v. You can see a restoration video of another model B if you are interested in seeing the guts of the saw:
Asking $100... the blades cost a good chunk of that. Pickup in Waterloo, ON, you can take some cuts on it in its current state.
Thanks,
-Dave
