If you don't mind me asking, how much did that set you back? Looks pretty good.

$45. I didn't think that was too bad.

He wanted $50, I asked if he would take $40 and he said $45 was the lowest he would take.

I wish. The old guy said he lost his wife last July and was retired now and was selling off the stuff he didn't use.

Nice score! The more garage and estate sales I go to, and as I get older (67+) I realize we're all just borrowing our stuff.

Great score! Looks to be this model. This was from the 73 catalog; they made the same/similar saw earlier as well.
Thanks for posting that. Where did you find that at?

Google rose antiques and catalogs, they have a bunch of them...
I was just thinking, if you bought the perforated steel for the stand today, you'd probably have just as much in the stand as you do the whole thing. That stuff is crazy expensive for what it is.
I bought some it to hang the garage door trcks and ended up taking some of it back and used regular steel.

Greetings,
Here is my yard sale find. Metal saw (the name plate says craftsman professional).
gmhill,
Doesn't this horizontal saw also double as a vertical (bandsaw)? You may have to fabricate a 6" x6" plate and attach it to those two screws on the blade guide. You won't have a 14" of depth like on your wood band saw but you can cut about 8 to 10" of depth. I do not have a pic of my craftsman horizontal in the bandsaw mode but a google search will get you one.

That's the same saw that I have in my shop. Just set your stock turn it on and find something else to do.....it'll shut its self off when its done. That was a great buy!
