vintage Saw Set Disston or Gottman antique Trip Hammer Bench mount Machine

Description

Offered is an antique saw setting machine from an estate
The machine looks 100% complete and it is in perfect working order
It is a Very heavy and well made machine, I suspect it is from the early 1900’s
I found info on this type of machine on the saw set collectors website
see the Hammer Saw Sets Page #2, it shows 2 very similar machines
one was made by Disston and the other by Gottman
I do not see any makers marks on this machine
the base is very heavy cast iron, it mounts to the edge of a work bench
When the removable handle rod in activated the trip hammer drops down on the tooth setting anvil
and when the handle is raised it re-sets the cam mechanism,
the rear has an adjustment that I think is for the hammer’s drop power level,
the anvil and hammer both look as they should and work perfectly when the lever is activated
The old advertisement in the Disston Lumberman’s handbook states 5” up to 24” diameter blades
the adjustable front holder has 2 cones to fit most any size arbor / blade mount
It is approx. 8” wide by 20” long, I have not put it on a scale yet but it feels like about 30 to 40 lbs
hopefully someone can put it to good use!..................................... Thanks for looking! ....
