Anyone hear of or know of CADILLAC MACHINE CO. Cadillac Michigan?

My boss is a Jewish carpenter. Our DADDY owns the business.
Trying to understand some people is like trying to pick up the clean end of a turd.

Well if it is truly a Cadillac, you'll have to remove the motor to change the blade.

No. Just lower the blade. Unfortunately the worm gear for lowering is missing. I'm thinking that it is a good example of post WWII manufacturing. Museum piece?

Cadillac has a long history of manufacturing. It does not surprise me there would have been a tool manufacturer there at one time
