    Default Meco bandsaw?

    Hello people,
    I recently acquired this Meco bandsaw from a retired cabinet maker. I can’t find any info on the bandsaw or the company that manufactured it. I have research all the usual haunts but still nothing. Any help would be appreciated. 20 inch wheels.

    Regards Damien.

    A search at NLA Trove threw out this result;
    A 1951 Industry Expo Catalogue features an ad for a Meco saw bench:

    I wish it was a 32” but mine is only 20”. Thanks for the info.
