Hammond Glider BGR78 Parts Needed

Post by rwarnoldjr »

I have recently acquired a Hammond Glider BGR78 and I am looking for a few parts. I am looking for the front drawer, the Miter Vise, the Batter and Line Up Gauge, the light fixture that attaches to the saw guard and a saw blade for cutting metal. I am hoping to restore the saw and use it in my letterpress print shop. If anyone has any of the parts available or recommendations on where I might find them it would be very much appreciated.

Thanks, Robert

I have also just acquired a Hammond glider. it is also missing the front drawer. not sure on the rest yet, it is still on the truck.

Any suggestions where to find something like that, or who could make it?

jkobes,
I'm in central Kansas and have an extra hopper/drawer. It came off a G4B.

Hello rwarnoldjr

I have an extra miter vise. I do not recognize your model number. Is the line up gauge the "finger" that works on the micrometer rail? Is the batter gauge the bolt on style like the G100, or is it cast into the table like the G-4. I have an extra light fixture. It attaches to the front of the blade guard.
