I picked up the machine today and wired it in. It works better than I had anticipated.

Thanks for your quick and excellent service. I'll let you know if I ever need anything else

I guess Ryan likes his new Dake grinder.

Just an FYI,

My brother in-law is always bragging about how his products are top quality, best in the universe, etc, etc.. Well, I really hate to agree with him but this picture says it all !!!

20 yrs ago>when I was a Dist Rep, I sold loads of Dake products around West Mi… >> I Found this just off 172^nd in GH at AIM Tool. I was in there Tuesday helping a sales Rep with a grinding application and I saw this old girl… I’m thinking the saw has to be over 50 years old, I should have got the serial #... Still cutting…

I have an old Dake 1-1/2B press. I am the third generation to use/abuse this awesome press.

I was thrilled when I opened your website and saw the picture of the founder of the Dake Corporation William F. Dake. He was my great-grandfather. How wonderful that after so many years you continue to recognize him as the inventor of the orginal Dake engine and the man who started the Dake Corporation. My mother, Wilda Dake, was an only child and his only grandchild. She passed on her pride in his accomplishments during such a short life to my sister and me. Thank you. Jane Marquard Chicago, IL

We have a 1898 Dake rotary engine attached to a Box Co. windless. Runs great! Recently did an ABS/USCG dead lift test with a 350# anchor and 150' of chain. Boat (CANGARDA) is now fully operational with all original machinery. I believe this setup is totally unique in the world. Thanks. Steve

Thanks. And also just a side, we use Dake arbor presses and this hyd press all the time in our shop and they are the best we have had bar none.

Thanks again

Thank you for your assistance. We have done the modification on the new power hammer. It was easy. I am so happy with the quality and the performance, it's awesome. Nice job.

Thanks man! You guys are rock stars in my book - thanks for keeping it real and making stuff in the USA!!!

Thank you for the great customer service. Dealing with you and your company has been a pleasure and I look forward to using my new saws. Wilson Auto Repair repairs and restores classic cars. Both services require fabrications to repair rust and structural damage and these new saws will make our task much easier. I look forward to receiving my new saw that you have promised to personally autograph. Thanks Again for your help.

I just received my new Dake 250 Cold Saw this week! From ordering to delivery it was an astonishing 3 days. The Dake 250 was inspected upon delivery and was immediately put to work. I burned through 200 feet of 1x1 angle iron so fast I was almost in tears. Before I used a chop saw for this and it left nasty burrs and made a huge mess all over the place. The Dake 250 cut through this angle iron like butter and left the edges burr free. I now use the Dake 250 for all my cuts in the shop. This is my first Cold saw purchase and it has already paid for itself due to the increased cutting capacity. I want to say Alan helped me in choosing the right product for the job and I am very satisfied with the service and quality of their products.

I am the proud owner of a very old Johnson Model J band saw. I called your parts department and gave the description of my part. You had both items in stock!! Keep in mind this saw is from the '50's or '60's... I received the parts (yes, they were correct) the next day via UPS and my saw is again running great! I would like to express my thanks to your company for making a great product and providing excellent service. If this saw EVER wears out, I will gladly buy another Johnson!

Hi Dennis,
It was our pleasure to be there and help talk about Dake. We believe in your product and thank you for working with us. We love our Dake equipment and anytime we can help out at a trade show or anywhere else, just let me know and we will be there. Thanks again.

I have just acquired a Dake 50 Ton Press that is approximately 50 years old. Unit is in good overall condition and will operate if refilled with oil. I am extremely impressed with the quality of this piece of equipment and how it has held up at the hands of non-owner's (came off of a military base) in my home shop, which is equipped with many older cleaned and/or restored commercial grade equipment. This press will last another 50 years to be pasted on to someone else that appreciates USA made tools and equipment.
Thanks.

Thanks for the email. I didn't make it to the SEMA show last year but thought I'd stop by this year for a day and take a look around. I walked past the Dake booth and stopped by to say "Hello". I bought a cold saw when I was at the show in 2006. I talked to you about it and then you walked me over to another booth and introduced me to a person who sold Dake equipment and helped me get one for a good price. I use it for general fabrication and that sort of thing. It works great and is a big improvement over a band saw for making quick, clean, and precise cuts.

It was a pleasure working with you on purchase order EA-29675930. Your exceptional customer service provided us the opportunity to meet our customer's deadline and gain our customer's trust.

Dear Dake, I wanted to let you know how pleased I am with my arbor press!!
This is the second year I've brought it into my mothers kitchen and placed it on her table. It works wonderful for cracking brazil nuts (15lbs.) for fruit cake! It has great control for cracking nuts without crushing them!
That's better than what you see orange county choppers and shows on the spike power block have done! Happy Holidays!!!
