SAW HISTORY:
I am glad that the saw arrived in good shape. As I told you on the phone, the reason I bought the saw was because I felt like it was a safe one for me. I have a bad leg and I fall often and I through that not having a chain runing on the top side would be better. I bought the saw in 1958 and used it until I bought a new Homelite in 1982. We had a fireplace and burned wood in it most of the winter. I hope this makes a nice addition to your collection. I enjoyed the showing of your collection, thanks for sending it to me. Lynn
