Here it is in all of it resplendent glory so far.
I still need to do a lot of work.

Looking good Bart. I'm not sure about the blood red accents though...
Please help support the Creek.

Hi Bruce
Actually the color is safety red & it has a little orange in it.
I'll be covering the hole where the switch was because I'll mount the switch on the bottom side of the fence guide rail on the left side of the saw. This will allow for standing on the left to guide wide material through the saw & still be able to turn the saw on & off. I'll make a system on the saw that will allow me to shut it off most anywhere along the front of the saw.
You post was good for a laugh though.

I agree with Bruce, the saw is sweet, but the red - ouch...Originally Posted by Bruce Page

I like the red Bart! Matches the handles.
Looks great Bart and you've come a long way with it.
Those colors almost look like Craftsman colors

You know, Bart...you could continue that red up in some little flames or something...
Seriously, nice job. This is a wonderful project and will give you a great saw to work with.

Bart -
Looks like you are making good progress.
With all that grey and red - are you an Ohio State fan or something?

Sorry Ted I've never been interested in any kind of sports. You might call me a spoil sport I think it a big waste of time & money. Now something like The New Yankee Workshop or American Wood Shop or Woodwright Shop if I'm going to watch someone do something on TV nows thats good sports.
Well Guys Jim Becker asked for red & I tried to please so I guess you can blame him HE He He .
Thanks for all the great comments.

I have done so much with so little for so long I am now qualified to do anything with nothing......
P.S. If you are interested in plans for any project that I post, just put some money in an envelope and mail it to me and I will keep it.
It looks alot faster with that racing stripe on it Bart!
I bought my wife an airbrush for christmas ( She thinks its for her lol} maybe I can let you use it. Thanks for posting this I really enjoyed my old rebuild.
Some of the sail powered warships of days gone by, used to have their decks painted red. It got the men accustomed to the sight of blood during battle.

Bart,
Nice job on the saw overhaul and I really like the gray and red color scheme but I'm from Dixieland
Thanks for the update Bart. Add me to the list of folks who like the grey and red colour scheme.
