Finally getting around to posting some pics of the used rock saw I purchased.
Paid almost $200.00 for this?! ... I must have been temporarily insane! The box is obviously homemade and it looks like whoever owned it used water instead of oil. The auto feed and side feed are rusted stuck, the auto feed gear motor might be bad, the blade is no good and the wiring looks dangerous. But...the motor runs good, the arbor is in good shape and the box is constructed from heavy gage steel. And...I might be able to get the gear motor working... All in all I'd say worth the money....LOL...we'll see...
I have more pics so I'll break this thread up into 2 parts
