Hi All

Does anyone know if Embee is still making seam rollers and if so will they be repped at the convention. I am having a hard time finding them locally and online :confused:

Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,

Embee Tools is no more. They closed and sold their tool line to Marshalltown http://www.marshalltown.com/. I know that many of the Embee tools were discontinued. One that I know that's still made is the #22 trimmer - now made in China without Embee's quality.

As far as I know, Marshalltown is not an Associate member and most likely won't be at the convention. However here is a list of seam rollers offered by Marshalltown http://home.marshalltown.com/catalog/results.asp

Thanks Gary...you have confirmed my fears, but I hope to find a suitable replacement and when I do I will buy a half dozen or more :lol:

I just happened to order through the Marshalltown site last week. I got a nice sweep (looks like a Best-Liebco China bristle) and rubber seam rollers. Got the shipment in 2 days.
