Description

1920(ish) JD Wallace 16” band saw. Solid cast iron bandsaw. It was completely disassembled, stripped, de-rusted down to the smallest nut/bolt. Bearings were replaced throughout the saw, motor was disassembled, has new tires and a new blade, gear box was cleaned and it has fresh oil (direct drive - gears are in excellent condition). Everything was primed/painted before reassembly. For all practical purposes this is a new 100 year old saw. These saws were designed for light industrial used and marketed by Wallace for that purpose. But the footprint is pretty much identical to a modern 14” saw. Speaking of modern saws, check the price on a new Grizzly, Jet, Delta or Powermatic. You’ll quickly find that this saw is a bargain. Then compare quality. Finally, ask yourself what the odds that a modern saw you might buy today will be functioning in another 100 years. Then come take a look at this saw. It will be in my shop till sold, so you’re more than welcome to come see it and take it for a test drive before buying. I have add’l pics on request. Or you can call/text me @ 78five-5three7-9one13.  Will help load, but this thing is a beast, so bring one other guy and have help ready to help unload when you get it home. Recommend some disassembly of major components before transport. Willing to consider delivery for a fee we agree on. I get to the KC and Colorado Springs areas regularly and could arrange delivery to those locations.
