Precision Tools for Professional Craftsmen Since 1989
Shop Fox has been at the forefront of delivering professional-grade woodworking and metalworking equipment to workshops, educational institutions, and passionate DIY enthusiasts across North America for over three decades. As a proud member of the Grizzly Industrial family, we’ve carved out a unique position in the market—bridging the gap between entry-level tools and industrial machinery by offering precision-engineered equipment at accessible prices for craftsmen who refuse to compromise on quality.
Our Heritage and Philosophy
Founded in 1989 and headquartered in Bellingham, Washington, Shop Fox is owned and operated by Woodstock International, Inc. Our company was built on a simple yet powerful philosophy: every woodworker and metalworker deserves access to reliable, professional-grade tools without breaking the bank. For over 35 years, we’ve stayed true to this mission, continuously refining our product lineup to meet the evolving needs of modern workshops.
While our manufacturing partnerships span facilities primarily in Taiwan and China, we maintain rigorous quality control standards and provide comprehensive customer support directly from our Washington state headquarters. This approach allows us to combine cost-effective manufacturing with American customer service excellence, ensuring you get the best of both worlds.
Engineering Excellence in Every Tool
Shop Fox equipment is distinguished by heavy-duty cast iron construction and precision engineering that professionals have come to trust. Our table saws, bandsaws, lathes, planers, drill presses, and dust collectors deliver consistent accuracy for the most demanding projects. Whether you’re outfitting a professional production workshop, equipping an educational institution, or advancing your craft at home, Shop Fox provides the durability, precision, and performance needed for serious woodworking and metalworking applications.
Each machine in our lineup undergoes thorough testing and quality assurance before reaching your workshop. We design our tools with real-world workshop conditions in mind, incorporating features that matter most to working craftsmen—from smooth-operating fence systems and adjustable speed settings to powerful motors and vibration-dampening construction.
Complete Workshop Solutions
At Shop Fox, we understand that a well-equipped workshop requires more than just primary machinery. That’s why we offer comprehensive workshop systems including powerful dust collection equipment, precision sanding machines, and essential accessories that complement your core tools. Our integrated approach ensures every component works together seamlessly, creating a cohesive ecosystem that serves professional craftsmen, educational institutions, and dedicated hobbyists who require reliable, long-lasting equipment for continuous use and exceptional results.
From our efficient W1666 and W1685 dust collectors that maintain healthy air quality, to our precision W1668 oscillating drill press and W1837 cabinet saw, every Shop Fox product is designed to enhance your workshop’s capabilities. Our mobile bases provide flexibility to optimize your workspace layout, while our genuine replacement parts ensure your equipment delivers decades of reliable service.
