When I was going to school I worked for Porter Cable, Rockwell, Delta as a repair tech. I love all of those brands, or at least what they were. IMO, Delta had about the best set up for shop grade tools and PC had the widest range of very usable jigs and high-end tools for the field. At this point I'm sad that I did not stow away the tools that would be discontinued that were simply great. The "stair-ease", and other assorted jigs are all gone now. Sad.
I was very diturbed when I saw what B&D did with all of the PC platforms. IMO they degraded the PC line to a little above the B&D platform. Junk! I am hopefull that Stanley Tools will see arsenal of tools they have purchase and restore the lines to what they were.
