Tablesaw rebuild - Bobby Thompson - 10-05-2015
Almost finished. Just a few minor details to do. Don't have any belts on it yet. I have some lexan to build a guard first.

It is a 14" saw. The blade that is on it is a 12". It was built by a company called Construction Equipment Co. from Waterloo, Iowa. It is my understanding that they went out of business in 1967. Unfortunately, they left no records. It has a serial number. The company made a lot of hoist, concrete mixers and pumps. I can date the motor from 1941 until 1957. The colors are as close as I can get. I color matched from small pieces that had a little paint left on them. I also have a sales brochure that shows the saw in it. They also made a smaller version and a larger 20" version that had a 16hp, four cylinder motor. This one is rated at 8.4 hp @ 3600 rpm. The saw weighs around 750 lbs.(not exactly portable). Wisconsin could not supply parts, so I went to ebay and found almost everything. I had to purchase a replacement carburetor since it did not have one with it. The arbor is 1 1/8". The top is black paint. It had a fence and miter gauge which I do not have. The guard was an option. The miter gauge bolted to the top. When the foot pedal was pushed the blade came up and cut the wood. It was a fun project. Next project will be a early 1900's Crescent bandsaw.

Shop Dad said:Here's one, from Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House (1949). Presumably, temporary power to job sites wasn't a common thing back then, but it predates me, so I can't speak from experience. But the carpenters are sawing by hand during the framing segments in the movie. My arm gets tired just watching them.
Cool, early job site saw?
