I don't think Sawstop made this one.

I like the exposed fan, too.

in case anyone wondered why this is in hand tools, the previous owner sold after he cut off his hands, one each with the blade and fan.
I always wondered why people bother to put stuff like this up on CL. If I somehow gained possession of that, it would be passed off to a metal scrapper, post haste

That is scary, but perhaps it is just to get folks talking about it, as we are here, so that it will sell.
Looks like a collection of usable PARTS to me. Motor, arbor, etc.
I'd give five or ten bucks and take it apart.

That's nuts! This doesn't look a whole lot better.

I would love to have and put a buffing wheel on it.

Like the country sawmills I've seen, but on a smaller scale.

That guy isn't even looking when he takes the shingle from the saw blade! Uffda!

My wife couldn't even watch more than a minute.

Yup, we call them suicide saws. Used to see them a lot in WVa. Except that instead of an electric motor there was a belt from an axial on a tractor that was blocked so one driven wheel is off the ground. The belt truned a saw between 30" and 50" in diameter.
