 +This was a donation from Akron Makerspace. It's a Bett-Marr 14S, vintage 1942-1956 (or maybe later?). Motor is dated 1986.
 +  * <del>Needs power cord (12/3, as it's a 16 A motor)</del> Fixed, though plug is 15A for now.
 +  * Should have a better power switch installed. A nice, emergency-stoppy one.
 +  * Probably needs a new belt - size?
 +  * There's sort-of a bodged welding job that needs to be ground off, have rust cleaned off and re-welded.
 +    * This has been worked around for now, but long-term should be fixed better 
 +  * Blade should be replaced (note inside door says 95 1/2" x 1/2" wide x 0.025" thick)
 +  * <del>Remove the light attachment - it's a mess and not helping anything</del>
 +  * Add a guard to the belt/chain mechanism
 +  * Add a guard to the blade
 +  * extend the current guidepost to drop lower?
 +  * Table needs refinishing - rather rusty
 +  * A nice repainting on the body wouldn't hurt either.
 +  * New tires? Probably not a priority right now, but eventually?
