Anniversary Sale May 21st

[NH2NC]

For those that are in the Charlotte area. Blume Supply at 3316 South Blvd. is having their 35th anniversary on May 21st. As a result, everything is on sale.

I just called and found out that they will have dealer reps onsite, food, door prizes and markdowns on ww equipment, etc...
This is the place that I got the great deal on my 50" Jet parallel clamps for $35 each. (I'm getting more:mrgreen
Not sure how familiar everyone is with Blume, but they sell Delta, PC, Dewalt, PM, CMC, Steel City, etc,etc,etc...

No, I don't work for them, but just wanted to share. The deals I found there were far better than the deals that I saw at the CLT WW show in March.

Hmmmm ... never been there, but heard about it. Anyone know the address? South Blvd is a long road.

Corner of Clanton and South Blvd. Exit 7 off 77 is the fastest route. (A little funky to get into the parking lot though)

Address: 3316 South Blvd.
CLT, 28209

i don't think so. they are very old school. their primary business is dealing with contractors as a supply house.

as i understand steve the owner has a heart for woodworking so always has some good toys in stock to sell to other woodworkers.

They had a reconditioned DeWalt DW735 for $399 when we were there after the Charlotte WW Show and one of our WNCWA members came down the next day and bought it. Last year, I brokered $500 off a Powermatic 15" Byrd head Planer for another member and a Jet 22-44 drum sander for another at substantial savings. They usually have very fair pricing.

See, this is the kind of thing that I am looking for. People of similar interest, stuff to do close to home (matthews). I would love to go.

Of course, I am in *!#*(@!$& seattle this week....
