I agree David. I see that as a positive move unlike PC being bought out by the B & D group.
Laguna buys SuperMax
Did y'all see this? I think this is a good thing - two good companies.

SuperMax Tools acquired by Laguna Tools
St. Paul, Minnesota – September 18th, 2017: SuperMax announces it has been acquired by Laguna Tools, Inc. Laguna Tools is an Irvine, California-based manufacturer of advanced CNC machinery and award-winning bandsaws, tablesaws, edgebanders, and other woodworking equipment.
“We were looking for the right partner to help expand our sanding products and to offer a broader range of products to our customers” says Bill Schroeder, President of SuperMax Tools. “Laguna Tools is clearly the leader in the industry. This is truly a win-win for both companies and their customers.”
Recently SuperMax has brought the new 16-32 drum sander to market, a prime example of the value and quality consumers have come to expect from the famed sanding company.
The acquisition is effective immediately.

Having visited Laguna's HQ several times and being helped by their staff, I can see this as a terrific move. Laguna's President is European, and many of their best tools are manufactured on that continent. That sensibility shows up in all their tools. Can't be anything but good news for SuperMax and its customers.
I am pleased to read of the opinions on the acquisition as I am seriously considering a Supermax drum sander. I would not be happy about that acquisition if the merger destroyed customer service.
