Old Craftsman Saw
by: Anonymous

Had one similar to this I bought used for 15 dollars about 1962. Used this is my business till about 10 years ago. A little on the heavy and akward side bu that large base always gave 90 degree cuts even when reaching out in some strange position. Finally burnt up the armature and retired it to a shelf in the shop as it was my first power saw and couldn't bear to toss it.

I just stumbled across this saw and had to have it. On the case in front by the handle is the patent #. I t looks identical to the one in the picture. Patent # 2695210 says the date is November 23, 1954. The one I have has the original manual, blades, parts list,wrenches, and rip guide

I have one in a case like the one pictured. It is a 6 1/2" in mint condition that I believe was manufactured in the 50's or 60's.
