Wadkin Radial Saw
Sorry if this doesn't belong here, but I found this which might be handy for a collector:
Radial Arm Saw, Wadkin, Model AC125 fitted 450mm tungsten tipped saw blade, Auction (0024-5003802) | GraysOnline Australia
Looks to be in pretty good nick too! The photos are on the site, but I figured having them here for later reference after the sale might be handy.

Craig, I think you will find that they have the model wrong, its actuality a Wadkin CC.
No biggie, its a nice bit of kit anyway !!
Thanks for showing.

Thanks for pointing that out. I'm have no idea about these, but knew that there would be people here interested.

The rise and fall comes from the front wheel, I guess?

Yes the big crank is rise and fall and the small othere is to lock the pivot. Thought you have to go around to the back collar it engage the presets on the massive pillar.

There were 2 CCs a 25" and 33" cross cut and this looks like the CC2 with the 33" cut. Both where 18" saws with a DOC of 5". If you needed more there was the 24" CD but i do not believe the head tilted on this model.
looks like someone got a great deal as this Wadkin sold for $109.
