An old Victorian advert for ‘The Leyton’, a hand-powered circular bench saw, made by Lewis and Lewis of Cambridge Heath, London, England, UK. It is from a magazine of 1890. The saw could cut through wood and assist in making tenons, mitres and rebates. The worker in his workshop rotates the saw by a geared wheel using his right hand while feeding the timber towards the saw blade with his left. He wears a robust leather apron – old 1800s graphics.
