jamieline Posted January 6, 2022 Report Posted January 6, 2022 Anyone have any information on this saw. OCtoolguy 1 Quote
kmmcrafts Posted January 6, 2022 Report Posted January 6, 2022 Believe these are rebranded Hawk scroll saws.. There were some "other" brand names that hawk sold under. This here has a different table but other than that it appears to be a Hawk... very old one at that and looks to be single speed. Now I could be wrong as I don't know the other names they sold under and there was a couple other factories that " copied Hawks design " and they also got shut down for doing it.. I want to say the brand name Dayton? was a copycat and one that got shut down. The tag on this says made in Kansas? which maybe another knock off since back in that time frame I think Hawks were made in Missouri? Anyway, guess I don't know much other than it's a Hawk design the the exception of the table. OCtoolguy 1 Quote
jamieline Posted January 6, 2022 Author Report Posted January 6, 2022 yes it's single speed. Just looked like a Hawk knockoff. OCtoolguy 1 Quote
Phil Royer Posted January 6, 2022 Report Posted January 6, 2022 I think the label says Kansas City Mo. That is where they are located and it appears that they are still in business. RBI was located in Pleasant Hill Mo, about 30 miles south of KC. OCtoolguy 1 Quote
