Wards "Powr Kraft" Circular Saw... Help...

Hello...

I am trying to source a pair (or two) of motor brushes for my 1972 vintage Montgomery Ward "Powr Kraft" Circular Saw.

The model number is TGB-8110A and the part number for the brushes("brush & spring") is 718-838.

Would it help if someone knows who originally made this saw for Wards?

I've done a pretty thorough web search and it looks like I'm going to have to rely on someone's personal knowledge & experience...

Thanks, Rob

You check this group?

If the source for other Powr Kraft (Power Craft for search) parts can't help, it's time to go to a motor shop.

I found this on the Web. It may be dated but give it a try.

At some point Black and Decker made Power Kraft tools. Try a Dewalt/B&D service center if convenient.

Unfortunately, you are 11 years too late.

For lack of the replacement brushes, trainfan1 gave up woodworking all together. He took up flower arranging instead.
