Delta portable tools
Hi,
I was wondering if Delta still makes some cheap cordless drills and nailers. I didn't see them in a long time in stores and their website don't say a word about their portable tool line. I'm suspecting they've dropped it. Especially after being bought over by Black & Decker.... Anyone can confirm this information? Thanks, Greg D. |

To complete the circle, P-C sold rebranded Delta table saw. Jim |

P-C is the handheld stuff, and Delta's the stationary stuff, usually. But not always. |

I've got a pneumatic Delta 18ga brad/staple nailer ... it's blue, and has been a pretty good brad gun. -- www.e-woodshop.net Last update: 8/29/06 |

If you do a Froogle search for Delta cordless you'll get a few listings from Tools for less and Tyler tool. I would bet your assumption is correct, B&D probably dropped the line for the B&D stuff. Lowes used to carry them, but I haven't seen them there for some time. Darrell |
