Jet Tools

[Jon Lanier]

Hi guys,

I looked but can't find it. I'm looking at a used Jet Table Saw to buy. I'd like to get an idea of the age. It is Blue. Anyone know what years Jet painted tools blue?

Thanks

Hello Jon,

I sold woodworking tools ('88 to '95) and the Jet tools were blue when I started....They went white right before I left so I'd say....'80's-Blue '90's-White (can't remember the exact year of the color change...maybe I have an old Jet catalog somewhere....I'll look)

Hope that helps...

Blue is prior to about 1999 or so when they changed to Ivory with the "25th Anniversary Edition" tools. If it's a cabinet saw, it may very well have a real Biessemyer fence on it, too, from that time period.

Both of my Jet tools, a contractor saw and 6" joiner were purchased in 1995 and are blue. Back then they even supplied a small container of matching paint.
