Old DeWalt saw? Not sure

[jrsalas]

Found this while the wife and i where shopping at a clothing store in Chico Ca. I think its some kind of radial arm saw. the thing is that the saw holder is facing the wrong way.

The whole thing head can rotate.

I had one similar when I lived in Chicago. There a beast of a saw. No longer common but if you have space I think there great.

What size blade does it accept? You can find as large as 16" models on Government Surplus sometimes. 12" and 14" are usually what goes on Craigslist. Love the compound curves on the older model design.

It's a Dewalt, that's cool.

I see a bunch of these on our local Craigs List, and one of these days I am going to pick one up and "restore" it with the current yellow and black DeWalt colors for my workshop.

Oh man, that is so sweet!  I wish we could score one of those on this side of the pond.
