You meant you travelled several hunded miles round trip to go to Weland in preference to Woodus' Carnival a couple of miles down the road with good company???

I can only assume we worked you and Casey too hard last weekend and you needed a rest.

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.

More on Kirchner here http://www.lily-elsie.com/wew/kirchner.htm

Its a Frame saw.

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