Pedal Powered Tools / Jig Saws by Barnes & others
Challenge
Jigsaw
Challenge Jigsaw has been
restored. It looks pretty good and seems to be operable. I believe the
table has been recast / replaced. It has casting ribs on the bottom and a
lip at the edge and so might be right and just buffed up for the restoration.
One of the foot peddles has a break in it, and the entire bracket affair to hold
it in place looks to be made up. The rest of this saw looks great and it is
a very graphic and showy piece with its flared leg design and paint decoration.
There is patent info up near the top, and a lot of original paint and decoration
remain there.click for pic click for pic click for pic click for pic click for pic click for pic

Shipman
1876 Patent Scrollsaw /
Jigsaw
This is a neat looking pedal powered jigsaw i have never seen before, and would
not expect to see in such nice condition. It almost has a shaker look and
feel to it being made almost entirely of wood, and having such graceful lines.
Mr. Shipman pulled the
patent #
183,029 in
1876, and resided in Rochester NY, and if I am not mistaken there was a
Shaker colony up that way back when. This was bought here on the west
coast near Reading Ca. years ago. The condition is such that I doubt
it was ever used. It has been sitting on display for the last 20-30
years, and is now being offered for sale for the first time in that time.
A super piece!!

Pedal Power
These were sold as auxiliary power sources to be used to power whatever the
buyer chose. From a sewing machine or jig saw, to a churn or whatever.
They are often seen with early dentist outfits used to power the drill.
A super piece!!
