Metabo's NEW line of Stationary Woodworking Tools
You might be asking yourself, "WHY BLUE?" In 1999 Elektra Beckum, the leading manufacturer of woodworking machinery in Europe became part of the Metabo group. Since that time, Elektra Beckums engineers have been hard at work designing an offering of machines for the United States woodworking market, to be sold under the Metabo brand name. Many hours went into the design, testing, redesign, and final testing of these machines to be sure these products exceeded Metabo's tough standards for quality and innovation. So why blue? The color is Elektra Beckums trademark color and is associated in their traditional markets with high quality and innovative designs they have been so successful with in Europe. Metabo is pleased to introduce this fine tradition to the United States.
