The "Tall Crane Saw" had 2 medallions, it was probably a good saw.
Sad, very sad.
...Naval Aviators, that had balz made of brass and the size of bowling balls, getting shot off the deck at night, in heavy seas, hoping that when they leave the deck that the ship is pointed towards the sky and not the water.

The bottom one doesn't match. These almost all junk saws. I wonder if she wants more donors- I could sell her a few hundred  For saw art I think these aren't terrible. I just don't see how she makes money selling them at that price considering the labor that must go into it. Then again she's got to sell them to make money and there are a lot of them sitting there.

I actually think a lot of those are very cool. Now, some pretty decent saws were sacrificed in the process.

I see the 2 lawyers saw. oops, 2 layers I guess.
 Actually I think those are pretty cool and a nice expression of art, if they aren't ruining something usable. I have a few painted saws on the wall and I appreciate them just about as much as those in my shop. Somedays moreso.And it seems she's pretty acomplished at woodcarving as well. http://www.cindychinn.com/wood-carving/c...ch-pew.htm And this girl can chew too... http://www.cindychinn.com/fine-craft/pha...guitar.htm

For the life of me, I just don't get it, same with painted saws.

True, but they're still dead.

It does seem that most of the saws are either undesireable or pretty ragged out. Typical of the majority you find in the wild. Not that they could not still be fine saws for cutting.

That's to bad about the "crane" saw. It looks to be a 1920's era mahogany handle No.12. With all the cutting it's hard to tell how wide the blade was. Some saws deserve this fate but I hate to see a premium saw get destroyed if it's in decent shape.
Take care,
