Oliver · Table saw · 1934 to the late 1980s
The Oliver No. 260 isn't a lathe. It's something rarer, a double-arbor table saw. A rip blade and a crosscut blade sit on two arbors in a swinging yoke, each with its own motor built on, and a turn of the handwheel brings the other blade up through the table. Oliver sold it to pattern shops, engineering firms and schools from the 1930s. The 1976 version had two 5 HP three-phase motors, an electric brake and a 41 x 44 in table with a rolling section, and the saw weighs about 2,500 lb. It's industrial through and through, so it suits a buyer with three-phase power or a big converter and a way to move a ton and a quarter.
Shop check
Should come with it
Hard to find if missing
Check the listing photos against these lists, and ask the seller about anything you can’t see. A missing fence, guard or motor should come off the price.
Two motors, a brake solenoid and a swinging yoke mean more to go wrong than on a single-arbor saw. Most run three-phase, and the weight rules out a casual move.
New to old iron? How to check a used woodworking machine covers runout, the table, bearings and the parts that go missing, and shipping a heavy machine covers freight, pickup and rigging it into the shop.
Buying guide
A 1976 260-D ran two 5 HP three-phase motors, so a shop on house power needs a converter before it needs the saw. That's why the $3,000 Oliver 260 from 1944 appeals, since it comes with a 10 HP rotary phase converter. The $3,650 260-D with a sliding table is the other we'd ask about. Sellers with feedback ask $3,000-4,980. Four are zero-feedback accounts, and the saw weighs about 2,500 lb, so plan on a rigger.

The 10 HP rotary converter is the piece you'd otherwise have to buy. The only photo is the No. 260 badge, so ask for full photos, both motor plates and whether the fence and guard are there.
