On the left is an image is my 1970s model HD 77 Skil Saw, an example of the "workhorse" of this type of power tool.
SKILSAW MODEL 77 SERIAL NUMBERS PORTABLE
The Evolution of Portable Motor-Driven Saws When I have time to do a proper job, I will upload some of Derek's photos and a handful of advertisements that appeared in newspapers and magazines immediately after Skilsaw appeared.Īs I told Derek, the text of the Skilsaw advertisements communicate the sense that the Skilsaw was just what the construction industry needed, that is a tool that would reduce the time-consuming process of dimensioning lumber for the assembly of a house's framing and other contstruction activities that go into the detail of completing the total project required for the completion of a house. After some investigation, it became evident that the Skilsaw's appearance - at 10-lbs, it has a 1/2 hp motor, with a 6-in blade - had what seems to be a greater immediate impact than the heavier Stanley, especially on the house construction industry, where savvy managers of hardware stores and other outlets that sold to the trade detected a strong market, even in a era of the crash of the stock market. The uploading of the 1928 stanley model mentioned above spurred Derek Kavanaugh to inquire about whether we knew anything about his 1929 Skilsaw. Read the patent filed Apby clicking on this link: Patent # 1,644,326 Evidently Stanley purchased the right to manufacture this saw from the patentee, John M Crowe, of the Crowe Mfg. I am concentrating first on the 1928 stanley model.
