One of the local stores carries King tools. These are a line of 10" table saws, 
drill presses, metal lathes, milling machines, and the like. Fairly big catalogue 
and they apparently are distributed out of Montreal, Canada. Prices are relatively 
cheap. I can't find any consumer reports on them though, and you just can't always 
trust what the salesman says. Anybody know about this line of tools?

I have a 10" King table saw, made in 1985, which I bought secondhand about
6 years ago. It was badly out of alignment, probably from new. A hour's
work put it all to rights. It has performed well, but the 3/4 HP motor is a
bit light for some jobs. I don't have anything else to compare it with, but
it seems to me to be a quite adequate machine.
