Guys, a few years ago I was in the market for a big 3HP router for my newly completed router table..A couple of you gentlemen steered me to a tool supplier who heavily discounted certain tools periodically..I ended up buying the Milwaukee 3 1/2 HP which now happily lives in my router table.I saved over $100 on that purchase but I am no longer receiving their occasional emails announcing their sales, etc....Name of that company would be very helpful..(perhaps they are out of business)...Thanks in advance. Jerry

Jerry, do you remember anything about them at all? Geographic area, etc.? Zoro tools offers steep discounts at times but it will be like a three hour long sale.

I'm thinking Florida...Their periodic sales were announced via email with a purchasing time frame (2-3 weeks)or until supply exhausted...Sales were almost every 2-3 months but on different items...Thanks for trying...

Did you order online? If so, check your email history for the order confirmation.

I can't remember the name of the site, but I remember the vendor closed it because of illness. Much of his inventory was Milwaukee.

He has not sold tools online for awhile. Again he had some medical issues. Have not talked to him in a long time. I too really likes his tool deals. He was one of the best. AMAZING Black Friday Deals.
