Today's great garage sale find! (and a CL one too!)

I found this saw today at a yard sale for ONE dollar!

Anyone know what it is? It has no marking that I can see on the blade and I've even applied a thorough coat of PB Breaker and steel wool.

Also found a type 7 Stanley Bailey #7c. I'm torn whether or not to use it, or make a box for it and turn it into art. A beautiful plane and almost 115 years old. I'll post some pictures in a subsequent post when I get all my planes and get them cleaned up!

Could that old saw be a Disston?
Maybe.

I have one with the same badge on the handle and it is an old Craftsman saw that I got from my dad.

blade shape is right but the handle is wrong for a disston I think.

thanks FSD for the ID. Any idea on age?

I have it hanging up above my pegboard right now. Just looks nice in the shop

Sorry, no idea on how to find the age.

scroll about 2/3 down the page, about 1/2 page of explaination.
Look for a series of dots @ the 3 and 9 o'clock on the medallion.

we need to see the #7. I'd use it for sure. Using it won't hurt it a bit, and its as nice of a jointer plane as they come.

For a buck, you got a good deal on the saw as well.

Here's the 7C.

Dated around turn of the century I believe based on the lack of rear adjustment lever and the dates on the various parts. I tried to get as close as possible.

Not bad for $75!

I think it's a type 7, pretty clear markings on the iron and base indicating this.
