  1. Sam, don't know if other message went through but congrats. If you go to hesswoodwork.com and look at vintage machines there is a series of threads on the restore of my oliver 217 you might find interesting. The Oliver 116 and Yates y20 shown as sold machines are mine as well. Dave
  2. Hi David,

    Thank you for your response on the 24" Powermatic band saw. Yesterday, I found a Davis and Wells 20" band saw that was in good shape for rebuilding. What you said about quality of components was a concern to me. So I purchased the Davis and Wells for $500. I don't know if that is a good price or not, but I was happy with it. I am going to do a complete rebuild. I also have two Dewalt radial arm saws, one 10" and one 14", that I am going to rebuild.

    Thanks again, Sam
