If you haven’t already seen it on Instagram,
Matt Underwood Woodturning and I were fortunate enough to spend a suny Thursday collecting not one but two PK’s and a DRA bandsaw. Thanks to him for providing transport and every ratchet he owns!

Matt’s is a green gen 2, around 1938, whereas the grey one is a much later gen 4 of 1956 similar to that of Jack Forsberg I believe. A 40’s DRA also accidentally fell onto the trailer. With possibly the find of the year, the Gen 4 was complete with the double mitre and the protractor. The double mitre also has the (original I believe) bar for the flip down stop (anyone have one for sale?!). There is slight damage to the rear of the double mitre and the protractor is missing the bar but I can’t complain!

I’m pretty certain the crown guard isn’t original but the original switch however is in fantastic condition.

Interestingly, the fence casting is stamped PJ (the saw’s predecessor).

And finally a monster 18” blade with an abnormally large banana for scale. P.S. the blade new would cost me more than the saw 🥲

Both families have now received their rattles so I can share the photos now as it won't ruin the surprise! Inspired by Danni Flowers demo at Forest Of Dean club, these are rippled ash handles with oak rattle and captive ring. Filled with glass beads.

Before Christmas, I was let loose milling some lovely English elm at Upper Elms Farm Sawmill, only to hit a telephone line anchor on the very first cut. Cost us the blade and me my Christmas bonus! Have kept the offending metal as a reminder.
