I purchased a Racine power hacksaw and needed to get an electric motor to make it work. I located a vintage Wagner 1-1/2 hp motor and fabricated a new mounting plate to make it work.

Below is a slide show of the saw, the motor and the electric box.

Waaayyyyy too cool Jeff, way too cool.
I had one I used to use in a shop but it was not a reciprocating blade like yours.
It had a band saw blade that just went round and round with a constant cutting motion and no drawing back.
It also had the slide weight on top to adjust downforce on the cut.
I love old stuff like that.
Nice job gettin her going again.
