Parts for old saw
« on: April 07, 2008, 06:47:03 AM »
I have an old Ward's "powr-kraft" 10" radial arm saw (model# tpc 2610E) that has so far served 3 generations of my family. I love it. It's a fantastic saw, still runs flawlessly. I've been trying without any success to find a source for parts for it. I'm not too worried, no problems yet.. but it's gonna need new brushes eventually, and I just don't want to lose this baby 'cause some small part finally goes..

Anyone know any decent source for old power tool parts? Heck, if the price was right I'd go so far as to buy another one just to keep around for parts... I'll probably cry if I ever have to part with it.. It's seen extensive use for over 40 years without a hitch, but I know it wont keep going indefinitely...

Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions!

Thanks Tim! I'll have to wait until Wed. to find out if they have what I need, but it sure looks promising!
