Got a deal on a Doall ML that I could not pass up...I knew ahead of time from reading online what the issues were and what was missing, etc...I still find it hard to believe that ANYONE would try to pick up a 1500lb band saw by the table! Here are some forensic pictures...the first show the casting that bore the weight of the machine for a short time, the second, a portion of the saw blade twisted in the upper guide, presumably when the lifting job went south...looks like they didnt even try to fix it, probably just set it aside...anyhow, I will try and get the main casting welded, and build the other table casting that are broken out of steel, may have to make a new main table support out of steel if the welding job does not work...
