I wanted to share a great source I use used to buy used/refurbished "American Made" woodworking & metalworking machines and accessories. Plaza machinery is a one man shop run by Joe Bergamo in Bethel, VT.
It is a blast to visit Joe and check out his display/storage "Barns and Trailers" He has tradespeople from all over the US sourcing hard to find parts and machines from him. He does some refurbishing esp of Walker Turner and older Delta & Rockwell drill presses. All of his stuff is American made.. he refuses to deal with machines made offshore.. "its all about the quality cast iron in the older machines"
A side bennie from visiting Joe during fishing season is the awesome trout fishing on the White river 1/2 mile from his operation.
here is the contact info for Plaza Machinery
