Sorry to see them go. I've bought quite a bit from them, mostly at the trade
shows, over the years. I guess more of Bush's economy putting the little
guys out of business and letting the big ones move out of the country.

Good thing none of that happened when Clinton was pres-o-dent. I don't
agree with a lot of the things corporations get away with by relocating
headquarters overseas et al, but don't be a tool (obligatory woodworking
reference) and suggest that it was invented by the Bush administration.

That's news to me. That's gonna leave a gapping hole in the woodworking
shows around here. They took a fair amount of floor space. I always
bought some odds and ends from them when attending the shows (I skip the
Viper and Oldham stuff--I've had bad luck with that stuff).

IIRC, they are/were a shirttail group of a division of Delta/Porter Cable
that was 'rationalized' as part of the Black & Decker merger.
Kind of a rolling flea market at the trade shows.
The fellow that did the router jig demos knows his stuff pretty well...
