Other than Makita, I don't think you'll find a power drill but you can find Made in USA drill bits.

A few weeks ago a DU'er inquired about a Made in USA sled and pine tar soap. I quickly came up with several choices for him. I've spent enough time browsing there that I think I'm starting to learn inventory. :)

I've used the site to shop but I learn and retain much about manufacturing in the US from my browsing. Even in this economy, there are new companies and products to discover. The site reminds me that we are creative, determined & productive people. These are the products that should be on the shelves of your nearby store and yet they remain a well kept secret.
