Craftsman band saw

[tinbender 66]

Not sure of the vintage of this. I believe it was made by King Seeley. I found a bunch with the same model # (103.24280) at Vintage Machinery but they were all gray. None in bronze and none with this type of Craftsman badging. It seems to run fine but I'll take it apart and refurbish it. It'll look good next to the old Craftsman table saw and drill press.

I stumbled across it at a garage sale today. It said $75 on it. Got it for $50.

I'll be the first...YOU ****. Great find. I particularly like that model of stand for the bandsaw. Looking forward to seeing a thread on your refurb.

Thanks guys! Thanks Kev for the suckage. I thought it was a pretty good deal but not sure if it was worthy.

I'll post pics as I redo it. Just bought a car today so I guess I'll be multi-tasking.
