Hi,
last week I went to a Delta dealer and he told me the Unisaw is no more in production, it is discontinued. It is replace by a cheap version made in Taiwan. Did anybody else heard this?

that guy was filling you full of BS! Delta still makes the Uni, and it is as good as ever!!
As I have been told, Delta is moving production of the Unisaw along with the other U.S. made tools offshore. The Limited Editon line is being replaced by the X-5 line which will be built in Asia and have a 5 year warranty. This includes the 14 in bandsaw, contractors saw, 3HP shaper, etc.
I wonder if this is really going to make a difference. How many of the parts in any current products "made in the U.S.", from cars to woodworking machines are foreign made and included in products assembled in the U.S.? A lot!
In order to survive every manufacturer has to cut cost wherever possible. It's not their fault but ours, the consumers who want the lowest price. Hey, I know I'm guilty of being cheap. ;=)
Check out http://www.deltawoodworking.com and any X-5 items are replacing U.S. made stuff.
Do yourself a favor DON"T buy anything from that DUMB SOB anymore cause he Doesn't know his A$$ from a hole in the ground LOL DELTA is still making the UNI in Topelo USA...
