I recently shared this 102.01121 bandsaw I found on FB MP in the Heritage thread, but realized it fits better in this one, so I am sharing it here to show a few photos after washing it off. He was offering up two of them and I chose the older one (of course!). These are the photos from his ad.
That's the tire from the upper wheel wrapped around the tensioner. It's pretty much complete, aside from the covers' knobs. Unfortunately, it did not come with the fence.
I took it apart so it would fit in my little car and blew it out with compressed air when I got home, followed by some soapy water.
It's got a Sears Companion motor with a cool 'open-hinge' mount. I'm guessing that's all original. He said he connected power and it ran, but I haven't done that yet.
This one on the Vintage Machinery site shows an added 1" riser block under the tensioner that allows you to use 80" blades, since 78" is an odd size. I'd like to copy that detail (with shorter bolts).
Walker Turner sure made some nice tools back in the day.
