Comments:

Found this on CL locally. PO purchased it many years ago at a yard sale and used it on a few projects. It has sat in his garage unused for several years. After a preliminary cleaning of wasp nest' on the inside it was started up and ran smoothly. It appears to be identical to the manufacturers (Sprunger) model BSN14P and differs only in the tag. The Sprunger models were painted spattered grey and Power-Kraft were painted spattered Gold. It sits on the original Power-Kraft stand.
Motor is a Delco, Model A8270CG (which is undersized for this model saw at 1/4hp,)1725rpm, Type A, 115v, S/N 148.
(edited 5/2/12: after additional info from Brian Kachadurian the Sprunger model is probably BSN14P which the registry appears to confirm. Date of mfg is probably mid 1970's.)
