Help identify this 4' brake

[DirtyWhiteBoy]

I just drug this 4' brake and a Bandbridge 712 bandsaw home.

It looks like the saw is junk, but the brake seems nice.

Can anyone I.D. the thing? I don't recognise the logo and have not found a tag on it. I would like to know something about it, so i can figure out if it's worth bolting to the floor?


Thanks!
Brian

The brake looks good.

Don't bolt it to the floor, put wheels on it so it can be moved around. Buddy down the street with one that sized, and one twice as large has both on wheels.

Heck, as long as it works it's worth it. Looks to be in great shape. What he said ^^^ too

I think he wants to know what the W stands for.

hmmm, I didn't think of that. I LIKE IT! I will have to widen the base tho, it is VERY top heavy as it is now. I can't wait to try it out

Thanks, milt. Yes I was curious what the "W" stands for
Not that it matters, I'm gonna keep it, if it works as good as it looks.

W= wysong. I would bolt it to the floor, it may move or tip over if you don't.

wider base than the top retractable casters if not stable enough add weight to base
