I have two versions of the Craftsman 12" band saw model 102.01121, and I will keep and restore one of them.
They are slightly different from each other - one has hinged wheel covers, the other has the more typical system of securing the covers with a knurled knob on a threaded stem, similar to the Delta 14" band saws. Help me chose which one to keep!

The saw will be more of a curio to me than a working saw. A little bit of history.
I've taken screenshots of the saws on the Vintage Machinery website, so these pics are not my actual saws - there are lots with the "knob / threaded stem" system, and one "not yet restored" saw with a hinged wheel cover, but you'll see what I mean.

Help me chose which saw to keep. I feel the hinged covers may be more convenient but the saw won't get heavy use, and the knurled knobs are cool.
thanks, Mark
