I found this saw for sale out there on the internet, the first such equipment I've found around these parts. I have no idea what brand or size, only that it's in rough shape. Any information about this particular saw would be helpful. I get the feeling the seller has no idea what they have.

My best saws are 18 and 24 in frantom. Real workhorse.

Not looking to buy, just curious about it? Thanks Henry

Yep, it's an old Frantom. Here's a similar one.

Those were great saws! Looks like they let water sit in it and made it rust pretty badly. So it's going to be a major restoration project. But if you're up for it, with what they are asking for it, it will be well worth doing. You'll have a great saw when you're finished.
