Hi Bengadgets, Would like to meet-up with you. Where in Pretoria are you. I'm at 1268 Blondel Street, in Queenswood. Maybe we can share some ideas. Regards, Viv

Hi mcmlvii, Will be posting a few closeup photo's later today. Viv

Hi stanleyrleonard, I admit....the photo's aren't great. Too much background, not enough saw. Will take a few more later today. Viv

Hi woody 73, I will gladly post more information if only I know what information it is you want. VW

Hi GB, Posted the scans on to Rod. Cheers VW

Hi txbruno Yes I have the 24" x 4" saw. Still very sharp but a bit of corrosion on the blade. Will need some steel wool, oil and elbow grease to clean up. Thanks for all the interest guys. VW
