The saw should be mohstly assembled this weekend, trying to get a new blade locally through a trade.

Can't wait until we have a place so I can get the saws out of the trailer. I had a couple of that style of Nelson saw, can you believe I saw one in an estate with a 24 inch blade?

Definitely time to get the saws out of the trailer!!! It's hounding time in Az. (mario)

I seen a 24" version on FB a few months back, what a cool monster that was.

Great looking saw by the way. It sort of looks like it belongs in a World's Fair from days gone bye.

Got to have a place to put them first.
I can dig out the hounding tools though.
I'm definitely ready.

I finally making progress again, the recirculation pump needed a little TLC, had a difficult time finding a machinist, found good on local on CL. He made a new shaft for it, the last one was really scared up, while apart time replace the bearing as well. Just about done with this saw as well, get the pump reassembled and a little more assembly. (mario)

right on Tim

knowing a machinist that
turned that beaut of a spindle
is worth weight of rock

your blade reminds me of one of my fav tunes
been listening to it lately
I’ll post it over in the music section

I cleaned a lot saw blades in my days
carbide woodcutting blades,,,

Love those old saws where they were not worried about using lots of thick metal parts. A real machine!!!
