Power-Kraft Model 84-tma-2272

[Shazaam42]

A few weeks ago a local listing popped up on FB for a Powercraft Model 84-tma-2272. Guy was asking $350 for it. Talked to him a bit about it, but am completely unfamiliar with the brand, so took a pass. Fast forward to today, and he's dropped the price to $250.

I'm still inclined to pass.....but thought I'd check what the rest of the forum thought before I did. Would hate to pass up on an incredible buy and be kicking myself later!

From the catalog, it looks like most everything is there. Pics from the listing, and a screenshot from the catalog.

You can familiarize yourself with Powr-Kraft tools in this thread.

Post up your Powr-Kraft and other Wards tools

The Vintage Tool Discussion has may threads about various brands of tools but I haven’t seen a thread specifically about Powr-Kraft. I know there are those of you out there with some of these tools so now is your chance to show them. My particular collection is generally focused on hand tools...

I think $250 is way too high. The Craftsman version might go for that much but not powr kraft.
Of course if you really want one the price is pretty subjective.

My thinking too. Appreciate the response!

I went through that thread before I posted this. Lots of cool old hand tools and there's bandsaw I thought was neat. No cabinet saws that I saw though. Appreciate the heads up!
