Picked up a vintage jig/scroll saw

Post by ddub »

advertised on CL about 13 miles from me cheap. I have pieces of a Shopsmith scroll saw, but not currently usable that I picked up about two months ago. It is similar to the ER units, but not complete and I think for a originally was on a power stand? So, I have been using a HF unit that well sucks......

So, I go to get this saw. turns out it has a 24 inch throw and is a big heavy old dog! LOL It is in really good condition. The light even works! LOL

According to this source it is a Walker-Turner re-baged as a Craftsman built in the 30's. In really nice shape also. Came on a heavy duty saw horse built for it also.

Something tells me that tools can be addicting also....... :eek: But hey it was cheaper than a bottle of Whiskey and a lot healthier!
