This rig consisted of a 4 HP gasoline engine. One flywheel was
removed and the 54 inch saw blade was secured to the crankshaft.
The engine was a 4 HP Weber. The saw blade was bought from Sears
Roebuck at a cost of $35 in 1906. The rig was mounted to a gearing

rig was sold to someone in Montana, was loaded in a boxcar and
shipped out there in the year 1908.
