1930's dewalt bandsaw.  100% cast iron frame, 88" blade, WITH base, and all the parts that came on it for change today.

whats wrong with it?  broken pulley from loading it, and it needs new tires on the wheels.  but it's getting chain gear reduction and the motor mounted in the base nice and low, and a 3hp or 6hp gould/century made in usa 220v motor slapped on it.

My brother in law has a drill press that is like that, same thing solid cast built in the 30's. uses a 4spd gear box from I think a model T.

One of my customers has a brake with a 20 ft bed, it is an absolute monster, all cast same thing in built in the 30's, I have spent hrs just looking it over.

I have a huge hard on for cast pieces. When I build a shop, I will start collecting them.
