Interesting . . . considering that neither Craftsman nor B&D is the brand it used to be. I DO know that in the past, B&D was the vendor for some Craftsman power tools.
Just saw a video about using a router and a jig to finish an 80% lower - the jig makers made a video using a B&D plunge router, but noted that they no longer recommend it, due to poor quality control.
I have an older B&D router in which the switch failed, and B&D no longer made it, even though the switch was used on numerous B&D and Craftsman products. Poor product support. (I got another brand switch and made it work.)
And last year, I bought a DeWalt (commercial B&D) jigsaw from Home Depot - the blade kept falling out. So back that POS went.
