9" Rockwell 6201B (made in Guelph Ontario, circa 1975).

Been there, neat town.

Good saw. Came with
two extensions and round fence rails . The rails had the ability to be
placed so that the extensions were all on one side or one on each side of
the blade. Putting them all the way to the right gives you a 48" rip
setting. It was the only saw up here that did that other then the Unisaw
back then.

Problem is it only uses round rails, so I can't put a Beismeyer on it.
(crud).

It is powered by a 220VAC 1.5 HP Marathon motor off of a AB paddle starter.
The guts of the saw are identical to the 10" contractor saws. The cabinet,
handwheels and top were different.

Sounds like you have at least 90% of a new saw already in place.

Time to spend some creative time on the thinking chair.

Couple of questions?

What is req'd to convert to accept a 10" blade?

Would you consider a UniFence?

If so, what would it take to fit a UniFence extrusion on the front of
the saw?
