Title: Saw set, (really is one) but who made it?
Post by: oldgoaly on October 23, 2016, 04:42:22 PM

the unusual thing I see it has a adjustable guide/fence? about 15-16" long (too lazy to dig out a rule)

the long handles an adjustable set makes me think for heavier gauge saws. Perhaps crosscut saws or something.

The swivel guide / fence has me thinking a curved blade?
could it be for those curved bottom 2 man saws?

Leach was as close as I could see, adjustable guide, but it's marked and looks to be a brass guide also.
More searching along that name might work? I was thinking the "winged" screws might give it away? but the Leach does not show the same screws. For some reason my 4th pic did not turn out. It shows holes / indentations along the bottom. I'll take another pic later today 1am now.

There is one by G. L. Holt Hartford, CT that looks like it matches yours on that site.
