I have had a L.S.Barker bandsaw for many years now, I picked it up from a guy at Morrabbin Airport through the back then Trading post, the pervious owner was using it to cut Aluminum
air craft engines in half for static displays, I recall asking where he had found it and he said from a pattern shop in South Melbourne.
Looking back it was one of the first bigger machines that I had purchased and when it was forked on to the back of my WB holden one tonner I was surprised to see the heavy duty leaf springs bottom out, the guy asked how far did I have to go, wondering if I was going to make it ...lol
Originally it had timber guards but I have since replaced them with steel ones, which never saw paint till now.
The original paint work was in overall good condition, a sand down so the etch primer keyed in was all it needed.
Hit with a coat of grey primer after sanding down.
Then the colour
Melbourne Matty.
