Mark J Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Anybody have some insight/gossip on what Black Friday deals may be just around the corner? Hoping Jet does another sale. I noticed the Woodcraft Nov flyer goes through the Wed before Thanksgiving, so they're not telling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marmotjr Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Keeping my eyes peeled for a drum sander. Shop built lathe drum sander is wearing out it's welcome, but not it's effectiveness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Cancelleri Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 More than likely it will be 10% off Jet and Powermatic. In addition, Jet clamps will probably be 20% off. RIP 50% off Jet clamps. There might be a 10% off Laguna sale, haven't seen one from them in a while. If there is a Laguna sale, chances are Supermax sanders will be part of it since Laguna acquired them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legenddc Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 Zoro tools had 30% off last year and you could get the Bessey clamps. Home Depot also had some Bessey clamps on sale but it was only a few sizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind if Nova/Teknatools had a promotion. There are some options I'd like to get for my lathe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denette Posted November 4, 2017 Report Share Posted November 4, 2017 On the topic of buying stuff, does anyone know if Jorgensen’s new Chinese overlords have started production again? I really hope they return to producing their cabinet master line, those are my favorites. I haven’t seen stuff back in stores yet, but that may be because all the big stores just put Bessey clamps on the shelves when Jorgensen tanked, and they don’t really see any reason to change brands again since Bessey seems to be doing fine.

Mark J Posted November 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 I never heard back from the Jorgesen guy I had contacted. Like Chet says check on the internet. You could check the company web site, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I've looked around and haven't found anything, which is why I was asking here. Interestingly, there isn't even a Wikipedia page for Jorgensen or Pony Tools. There isn't even one for Bessey, that I could find. I guess clamp aficionados aren't big on editing Wikipedia, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently noticed they were off the market. Two years ago I won 20 Jorgies at a local auction for an average of $10 each. Now I have 32 in various sizes, but actually prefer my Universal aluminum clamps for most jobs. I must admit - I think I have too many clamps.

AstroDave Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 Zoro.com has a pretty good discount up until today. 20-25% depending on what you spend. Obviously some brand restrictions. However, I didn't see Powermatic, Jet and some others on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
