Picked this up at an auction for $2, everyone else there were contractors looking for usable tools. It came with the original case, tools and paperwork.
-
Picked this up last year, about half way through the restoration on it.

Do you think you can find a 6 1/2" blade? I've never had the need for one but I don't recall ever seeing them.
Nice find even if you don't find a blade.

Hello, Papadan. Nice find on the saw, I am sure your restoration will look great!!! Regards, Lou

Wow, that's amazing, plus it came with all the accessories. Good find, and score.
-
Sweet buy!
-
I have one of them I bought back in the 1970's blades were easy to find then. Still have it stashed under the woodworking bench somewhere.
-
McMaster Carr still carries 6 1/2 inch blades so you can probably find them other places too.
-
Just after I bought this saw, I ordered a new blade from sears for it. I wanted one with the Craftsman name on it.
-
That is a huge score for the money. Do it run?

My late uncle had one of these. My aunt offered it to me and I am mulling it over. I really didn't have room that day as i got his old Polish machinist vise that day. It is a massive vise and in beautiful condition.
My late uncle was a true inspiration to me and I would love to have another piece to remember him by.
This saw is in ok condition, needs a little TLC and a cord. If you look closely on the nameplate it is from 1951.

Hello, That looks like a good one. I like the wrap around baseplate, too!! Regards, Lou
