They were used in logging, and when all the teak ...Rhodesian teak... ran out, they were parked up as redundant.
One of those would keep you busy for a week or two, and wouldn't it look pretty special when you were done.

Which I've never really understood, the double mitre isn't exactly a critical piece of equipment for the machine. I don't think I've ever gone "Gee, I really wish I had a double mitre for this job" and I do a fair amount of work on a panel saw. I'm sure there are some that find them invaluable but I've never got the big fuss.
