Free tools are always fun

I've been cutting the lawn at my mothers house and the garage she keeps the lawnmower in is really old and full of junk.

Well, today I found a bandsaw and a chopsaw. This will help my go-kart building project a lot! These tools belonged to my dad, and he died in 1990. So they have not even been touched in a long time. I'm not sure how old the bandsaw is.

But it still works perfect! Just needs a new blade...

Does anyone have any info on this saw? I cleaned it up a little bit.

Nice find. looks like you need to find the front blade guide.
