Craftsman 12" Band (found on the side of the road)

In my neighborhood, it is not at all unusual to find reusable items just setting on the side of the road waiting to be adopting into a new home. Only yesterday afternoon, on my way home from shopping I came across this old bandsaw forlornly setting alone on the curb. I haven't had the time to clean it up yet. I have inspected it inside and out to see if everything was there. It is. And, it seems to be in excellent condition, save a bit of light rust. I still need to inspect the electric motor to see if it works.

I plan to remove it from that chunk of old plywood and make a proper stand for it. I'm going to clean the work surface and maybe repaint to machine gray again. The original Craftsman logo is missing off the other side. So, I'm going to try and find another one. (any ideas?)
