I was lucky enough to pick up this radial arm saw on the weekend. I'd been keeping my eye out for one for a while so snaffled this when it popped up on Gumtree about a week ago. I bought it from a guy who was winding up his furniture/cabinet business. He said he never used it much but that it came with a set of machines he purchased from a recently deceased cabinet maker's estate. He made the wife some furniture and she gave him all the old blokes tools / machines. Well within 24 hours of owning it I have broken a part. I brought the saw home with me on the back of the ute and didn't quite realise how high the height adjustment handle was sticking up above the top of the ute. So this just clipped the top of the garage door when I was bringing it through to my shed and the casting that holds the handle broke. It's a clean break fortunately and I remain confident of being able to effect a fix. I've put some photos below. I was hearing up for a big resto but I don't think it's needed. Just a clean and put it into place. Oh and a bit of wood to denail and move before it can be moved to it's final place in the shed.
One last thing - I've put up a photo of the serial number. Any way of finding out when the machine was made?
Cheers,
