Early model Crescent, modernized from overhead line shaft operation to electric with safety features. 

 

Built late eighteen hundreds, runs on Babbitt can accommodate blades up to two inches wide, currently fitted with 1.250"

 

Crescent Machine Company was founded in Leetonia, Ohio in 1893. It manufactured a line of industrial woodworking machinery, particularly band saws. In 1940, it was bought by Pittsburgh Equitable Meter and Manufacturing Company, which became the Rockwell Manufacturing Company in 1946.

 

Leaving in the morning to bring her home.
