In 1878 catalog Millers Falls offered two Patented Bracket Saw Frames. One was made in wood and was offered in two varieties; Rosewood and Birch. Wood was highly polished.

The frames were produced in two sizes of frame clearance: 12 and 14 inches. The prices varied and depended of wood used for construction. Rosewood frame was more expensive, at $15.00 per dozen. The birch frame was a little cheaper - at $12.00 per dozen.

The frames were produced up to 1903 and appear in the Millers Falls Catalog "B", 1903.

Here is what it looks like, made in Birch.

It was based on patent awarded to Henry Lee Pratt on June 8, 1875 and assigned a No. 8,381.
