We had our garage sale this past weekend. Maybe 75% of what I had to sell is now gone. One table saw and one vintage craftsman shaper are left to be rehomed. By nest week I think I will be to a point where I can share some photo's of the greatly improved work place. BTW- we cleared about...

You ****, I hate you, lucky bastXXd, all mean the same thing. :p:D:D I was working out in the shop and found a few more things. I need to amend the list. Also included was a homecraft bench top drill press a rockwell 16" scroll saw, and an oxy acetylene torch and tank set up.

Sorry I dropped out on you guys for a bit. I have been spending A LOT of time reorganizing my garage. PIcs to follow soon. On a side note, I happened upon a garage sale loaded with wood working tools. in my purchase: Rockwell 14" band saw homecraft 4" jointer Rockwell 6" jointer Rockwell...

Yesterday, I found this super cute, ultra mini Sears table saw. "VINTAGE CAST IRON TOP TABLE SAW SEARS ROEBUCK 149.24121 ". The table is 10" wide and 13.5" deep. I bought it thinking I could restore it and make it a bench top table saw for doing my very small hobbies. This particular saw is...

Okay folks, I searched and did not find a thread that listed the older Craftsman OR Sears vintage power tools. There are many threads discussing individual tools, but none with a collection of multiple types, models or ages. I thought it would be good to create a thread for reviews of the older...

Hey Folks, THE CRAFTSMAN DRILL PRESS IS SOLD! The emerson parts are still available. I recently finished my Emerson 15.5" restore project. I now have a 15" craftsman 150 that is extra. I am kind of new to the selling and buying of vintage equipment so I have really very little idea what to...

thanks! It is a downloaded pdf, so after you click on it, you will have to go to your download folder open it. I didn't figure that out until I was in it for a bit.

Once realized the first two digits were model year, I searched on Powr-Kraft 2284. This gave me a lot more options to look at. I did have to look through about 10 of these types of folders to find it though

testing for a pdf attachment I think this worked. On page 5 of the pdf it lists a 2284 "k" not "a". It looks identical to mine and it is a 6" table saw.

Okay, I have been looking at serial numbers and one of the registries. It appears that the early powr-kraft machines had a model number that incorporated the year of manufacture. My saw above starts with a 94, reverse that and you have a 49, or 1949 manufacture. This corelates to all of the...

RTM. there is one saw in that posting that is close in size as compared to mine. It is a 7" saw.

Thanks. Maybe 4 years ago I bought a new set of husky boxes to handle my tools. Last year they went to ****. I had spent nearly $1k on those new boxes. What a waste. I started looking for some new QUALITY boxes. They cost a small fortune. I decided to look at used stuff. I think I have about...

Thanks for all of the warm welcomes. The pics below are embarrassing to me. They are as my garage is today. So public humiliation for me, and then the journey begins. It is time to start the process and attempt to become organized, neat, and clutter free.

Hey Folks, My table is 10.5" x 12.5 inches, give or take a 1/16". I appreciate the ad posts, but they are not quite the same as mine. I'll get some better pics and post them in a bit(maybe tomorrow). until later.................. Mark
