Yes, they produce mostly abroad afaik. Another somewhat known company from Liechtenstein is cable maker Neutrik. If you’ve even been in a pro audio or broadcasting studio or a scientific lab, you probably have used their cables.
Thanks! I’m just a hapless homeowner who occasionally roleplays being handy enough to fix things (though my last shelving unit for my basement came out remarkably level, surprisingly).
(I had actually been hoping to repair the Dewalt, as it’s a hand-me-down from my dad (fuck cancer), but I’m pretty sure it’d be a lost cause (the drill is at least 20 years old, probably older, I’m pretty sure I remember my dad using it when I was a kid).)
Completely missing are power tools and guns. So please buy Bosch, Festool, Hilti, H&K, Cz., Glock, FN.
Avoid American gun companies like Sig Sauer, and support Swiss and EU gun companies like Sig Sauer
All kidding aside also worth mentioning are Beretta, Benelli, and Steyr
The list does have an hard on for hating everything that is not german.
Fun fact, Hilti, a Liechtenstein company, has 34000 employees. The country itself has 40000 citizens.

I missed the “and guns” part of your first sentence, which made me think, “Whoa, I gotta get me a Glock power drill.”
Good to know about Bosch, Festool, and Hilti, thanks for the info. My ancient Dewalt drill just started smoking, so I now know where to look.
If you want something really good get Makita from Japan. Bosch has two quality levels green is meh to good, blue is very good.

I’m still using my deceased dad’s orange drill from the 1970s made by Black+Decker.
Fuck cancer, I concur.
