in case anyone wondered why this is in hand tools, the previous owner sold after he cut off his hands, one each with the blade and fan.
I always wondered why people bother to put stuff like this up on CL. If I somehow gained possession of that, it would be passed off to a metal scrapper, post haste

That is scary, but perhaps it is just to get folks talking about it, as we are here, so that it will sell.
Looks like a collection of usable PARTS to me. Motor, arbor, etc.
I'd give five or ten bucks and take it apart.

Like the country sawmills I've seen, but on a smaller scale.

Yup, we call them suicide saws. Used to see them a lot in WVa. Except that instead of an electric motor there was a belt from an axial on a tractor that was blocked so one driven wheel is off the ground. The belt truned a saw between 30" and 50" in diameter.
