Picked these up this morning cheap from someone on Craigslist. A Milwaukee and a large Power-Kraft. Any info is encouraged and appreciated. Gonna clean them up. I think they are cool if nothing else. Thanks all

No info for ya, but they are cool!
if you polish them up keep us updated with photos, please!
Thank you yes I think they are awesome. Hopefully I'll get around to tinkering with them a bit later. Pics will follow for sure.
The Power-Kraft wasn't working upon purchase. Took a couple minutes to have a look and found a severed wire near the trigger switch. Soldered the wore back together and it worked. Pretty pleased. Didn't really do much but put it back together. I started taking apart the Milwaukee a few mins ago. Definitely going to replace the power cord. I am v9nfused though because both wires are black and there is no markings of any kind to differentiate one from the other. Not too electrically talented. Anyway here's a pic of the severed wire from the Power-Kraft, and a few pics of the Milwaukee's wiring.

Dude, that drills cool! Looks like marvin the martians ray gun!! Lol lp looks like it could be a real elbow buster! I just came across 4 big half inch drills too, thinking I'm gonna do same as you n clean up n rebuild
Haha thank you.
I can't imagine toting around that drill ten hours a day for work. That would've been brutal. The Power Kraft is actually a 3/4" drill. The chuck is about the size of an apple.

I'd use caution as some of those wires could be asbestos insulated.
Noted. Thanks I appreciate it.
