What’s a Product Life Cycle Anyway Redux

by Andrew Davis

Andrew revives his December 2017 Bevel Cut and adds some updates.  The article presents the irony of the age of motorized woodworking tools, for example, table saws that continue to be marketed after years of of being released for purchase. At the left is a picture of a Powermatic 66 that was first sold in 1966 until 2008.

Compare that with furniture styles, automobiles, computers, telephones, other electronics, .  There's nothing close to Moore's Law for woodworking tools.  Read What’s a Product Life Cycle Anyway Redux for more on the subject.

Andrew welcomes your feedback.
