I believe I heard some where that has been contracted out to BOSCH. They have a facility in Walnut Ridge AR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred W. Hargis Jr Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 I think the Freud power tools may be available in other countries, but they pulled them from the U.S. (or N.A., whichever) when the Bosch deal for their bits/blades business struck. I have one of their big routers (Freud) that I bought in the early 90's and it's a beast. I liked it so well I bought a second one for my RT (later sold, along with the lift I had). An interesting thing about the Freud/Bosch transaction...apparently a part of the deal was that Bosch would provide parts (and maybe service, for all I know) for those Freud power tools in the U.S.. I have a smaller Freud router (also a god one) and was able to order a couple of small parts for it by calling Bosch.

Warped & Twisted Posted November 4, 2017 Report Share Posted November 4, 2017 I wish one of my Dewalt tools would break down so I could find out how they do on customer service. Cal and HARO50 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
