Ron,

4" x 24" is the correct size for this mitre box.

Ron,

4" x 24" is the correct size for this mitre box.

Thanks folks. I thought so, but a few too many irons in the fire to spend on this electronic time killer.

The correct saw depends on the year:

4" x 20" per 1915 catalog

4" x 24" (1958)

other variations exist.

IIRC....The #60 was set up to accept about any panel saw as well....The #60 I had could be set to use a regular handsaw....usually a 20-24" Panel saw.  

So, IF the Backsaw was "out for sharpening" that day, the Finish Carpenter could still get his work done...
