John Dirks Jr 6 Posted September 12, 2018 Report Share Posted September 12, 2018 Are these old power tools worth anything to collectors? They work. I have new cordless stuff I use now. I was about to recycle these. Should I go ahead and chuck them in the metal bin at the landfill? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chad Fabry 54 Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 They have excellent scrap value.I'd guess you're looking at nearly 3 bucks worth of stuff.If you take a half day and separate the metals, you'll net $5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marc 77 Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 I'll give them a good home. A friend has a circular saw from the same period. It sits on a living room shelf in perfect condition. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Dirks Jr 6 Posted September 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 I've decided to keep them. They work fine and if I ever need them in a bind when another tool breaks down, they're ready to use. And, if you like that old fashion electric motor smell, you get that too when you use them.
