? on vintage Craftsman item

[udoittwo]

Hello again and thanks for the help with the RR chisels.
I have many of my GGrandfather/Grandfather/Father's old/vintage tools that I inherited with my home and may need some help with them.
Is this old Craftsman set/kit of any value? It all works and I believe I have another part some where. Is it worth trying to sell or would the shipping make it just scrap value?
Thanks again and HAVE A GREAT DAY!
Karl.

I would think very little value, Do a sold item search on ebay and see what they sell for.
Not what they are asking.

Why is this being titled a Craftsman? There is a GE logo on the metal case cover and on the dirty paper inside.

I don't know any GE collectors, but there may be some.

If it actually were Craftsman, collectors thereof will buy anything, especially complete kits; but will ultimately die frustrated knowing however large the collection, they don't have a fraction of the Craftsman-branded tools.

My guess is that there may be very little value in that box. You might be best to keep the sander and use it

Is this one of those multi-tool deals? Like detach the sander and attach the jigsaw? If it is, they are cool, but I don’t think valuable.
I’m secretly hoping to stumble upon one.

The box is labelled "GE Portable Power Tool Kit". The manual is titled "GE Power Tools". The label on the sander appears to say "GE Portable Power Tool".

I don't believe I've ever seen a GE-labelled power tool. Maybe there are GE power tool collectors?

Sorry, I have so many tools, I just have the wrong pictures. I have a similar multi-piece Craftsman set that is nicer condition and I believe a few more attachments.
Thanks again,
Karl.

I have a GE soldering iron that was used by Heathkit to build a soldering station. The original GE setup came with a transformer with binding posts for different heat settings and a little stand for the iron Heath stuck their transformer in a box with a rotary switch, to change heat settings, and put a holder and heat shield on top. There were different elements with different integral tip that screw into the handle That is it for my GE tools...one lonely soldering iron.
