Finished this 2-person saw for a customer. Estimating this saw is over a hundred years old based upon the pitting of the metal, age of the wood handle and the medallion. After sandblasting the saw, I added primer to prevent any rust. The handle needed repairs and the second handle had disintegrated. My brother-in-law made a new one (not pictured).
Total painting time was about 6 hours.
