Marc may find this very interesting.

It seems that Jointech is going out of the router bit business. Their stock has been acquired.

I do not know about the rest of their business... Hummmmmm, maybe their sliding table can be adapted to fit onto the left wing???

Has anybody heard anything about their entire business??

I would think that someone would end up acquiring the business... they make a decent product, but it's out of my price range.

It'll be interesting to watch and see what happens eh...

I have one of their cabinet maker fence systems and overall it is nice. About a year after I bought it Incra came out with exactly the same thing but nicer. Someone from Jointech at a woodworking show told me that Incra stole their idea and that they were suing. Maybe Jointech lost the law suit and competition from Incra is putting them out of business. I don't know.
