HISTORY:
My father and I were the original owners. Used it to provide wood for a wood stove. During the oil shock of the late 70s my dad bought a wood stove as a back up heater and to save on heating costs. I was the exclusive user of the saw as my dad was not good with stuff like that. It served us well and I will miss it. Glad it will be appreciated. It was a great performer!!!!
