I inherited this saw from my Dad who recently passed away. It appears to be missing the blade clamp. I have been unable to find a replacement online. Does anyone know of a compatible part that is still available? Thanks in advance.
Wow, no idea where to get a replacement part. Usually when a tool is this old, the best bet is to visit eBay and look for a broken tool that has your part on it and scoop it up for cheap, then take the part off that.
Welcome to the forum.
it might be possible to fabricate the part with a piece of metal, a Dremel and a file.
It looks like Item #7 in this parts drawing is the missing part.
Again, it might be possible to make something that works / fits close enough.
