    Default Can't Find Manufacturer of Multitool


    I have a Multitool belt grinding attachment fitted to my bench grinder. It is one of the most used tools in my shop.
    I seem to remember that there was an optional extra of a tilting mitre table that I couldn't afford at the time I bought the original unit (many years ago).
    I have been trying to find a retailer or the manufacturer to obtain this accessory without success.

    The brochure I still have names the manufacturer as PA Products Pty Ltd of Mordale NSW, but the phone number is very old (only seven digits) and doesn't seem to work anymore.

    Does anyone know what happened to PA or where I may be able to get this table?

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Regards

    G'day Pete,

    I have one of these and you are right they are a great little attachment.
    I have had a look at Total Tools website and they sell the tilting table attachment.
    They might have to order one in for you. There is a store here that is near you.
    Cheers

    Hi DJ
    Many thanks. I had forgotten about Total Tools. They have a branch just down the road on Burwood Hwy so I will go and pay them a visit.
    Best regards

    Thanks for your info Stuart, however the two Bunnings nearest me have stopped stocking the Multitool product as being too expensive and not only that but their special order department can't order it in because they have no information regarding PA Products.

    The good news is that my local Total Tools have undertaken to get a table for me.

    Many thanks for taking the trouble to help

    Cheers

    No problem - I can see where they are coming from - have admired them in Bunnings over the years, and totally bauked at the price.

    Great looking tool though - overengineered to all buggery

    The manufacturer, PAProducts has set up in Bathurst. They do not sell direct to the public but have J W Ross as their selling agents and distributors.
    On their website, you can find the nearest retailer....the link is
    www.jwross.com.au
    You may already have it, but it is available for you.
