Its a Frame saw.

Reciprocates and cuts horizontally. Rather than the old rack saw which is rotary n cuts vertically.

This horizontal saw was built in the early 1900s. Made by Kirchner of Leipzig (Saxony, ex-GDR), it was supplied to Llangedwyn Mill (Oswestry) in mid-Wales. Originally powered by a waterwheel.

Yes very nice indeed but I do wonder if black is the best choice for the mudgards and belly boxes. 9 out of 10 for me!
