Anybody know what model no. this saw is?

Looks smaller than a no. 81

It has a 3 phase, 5 hp motor currently, but originally was single phase.

That bandsaw doesn't look like any Powermatic I know. Green color is wrong. Yellow is unusual. Could this be a Woodtek rebranded as Powermatic?

I'm with Bill, I've never seen a Powermatic bandsaw that looks like that. It's either something very obscure, or more likely a powermatic badge attached to another brand of bandsaw.

It’s a Woodtek 20” saw. As said, somebody slapped a PM badge on it for some reason. Still a nice saw I bet.

Thanks fellas. I thought it looked odd to me, and this confirms that suspicion.
