HAMMOND TRIM-O-SAW G100 PRECISION TYPOGRAPHICAL SAW

Model G100
Serial No. 10453

Vintage Hammond Trim-O-Saw G100 precision typographical saw in very good - and complete - operating condition.

Originally designed for commercial printing and letterpress work, this machine has been privately owned and carefully maintained, and is in good cosmetic condition. It remains fully-operational, and was recently tested by cutting both type and rule (see attached video). NOTE: This is an increasingly difficult machine to find in complete, operational condition, and would be an excellent addition to a letterpress shop, printing museum, industrial machinery collection, or precision workshop.

Features Include:
Original Hammond cabinet and tags
Original blade guard
Original work light
Precision screw-feed fence and measuring system
Hold-down clamp assembly
Sliding table/glider mechanism
Readable original scales and markings
Single-phase 120-volt motor
Smooth operation and well-maintained mechanical components

This machine came from a working print environment, and has not been sitting neglected in a barn or salvage yard, etc. The machine appears complete and retains the original components shown in the photographs. All adjustments, clamp mechanisms, and fence assemblies function properly.

Video attached, and additional photographs available upon request.
