Oregon Pneumatic...

I was out looking for metric flange nuts (needle in a haystack, folks...) last week, and stopped by one of the industrial fasterner places.

I was checking out a lot of the Wright stuff they had, and I found a display of these:

http://www.farmgro.com/

The website is outdated, there was some stuff on the shelf not on the site (like an angled cut-off tool/die grinder thing that looked kinda neat).

Sadly, it's all Chiwanese. Kinda sucks to find a "local" manufacturer that really isn't local at all...

Anyone heard of them? I'm in the market for a cut-off tool or two, and even though it's not domestically produced, was thinking about that angled deal I saw (45-degree, instead of a 90-degree).

Being that I'm not going to be able (in most cases) to afford top-shelf domestically-produced gear for a tool I'll infrequently use, foriegn stuff is likely what I'll have to suffer with.

At that point, is it going to be foriegn Craftsman, or foriegn somebody else?

Well, seeing as how the webpage won't even load, I am not sure that I would take a gamble on the tools...

On a serious note, if you purchase those tools, I wouldn't plan on any after-the-sales service. Gut feeling is that they are probably just trying to clear them out.....

Have u looked at Flordia pneumatic ? they have a good USA cutoff tool that can be had for cheap brand new.

If the price is right go for it. What can go wrong, go wrong, go wrong. It's a simple tool.
