Hi everyone, new on your forums and glad to be here.
I recently went to Normand Tools (a local tools distributor) to buy a good column press drill. They proposed me a Steel City 20215, which is a 15" variable speed drill.
I told them that Steel City has turned belly up in 2015 and that I don't want to spend over $700 on a tool if the manufacturer don't exist any more. But they showed me a large quantity of new machine tools they have in inventory, like jointers, planers and some industrial woodworking machines. They assured me that Steel City is still manufacturing in Taiwan, and that it is only the American importer of Steel City tools that closed their doors.
Is that true? I'm kind of lost.
