mine is a skil saw from the 70s i think
seems to run fine
am curious because i wonder if they can become unsafe to use in the
electrical sense and what to do besides replacemnt
guessing that replacement parts might be hard to come by
Some times, you get to bite the bullet, and replace with a newer
one.
I've a 3/8 variable speed craftsman drill. It still gets hauled
out for the occasional task, but mostly I'm using the cordless.
