Harris Highwall,
You are correct that theirs is not "Bridgeport", but we all don't do this for a living and can't depreciate the cost of equipment.I'll have to admit I have only bought small "stuff" from them, but the quality is on par with price. BTY, except for the "Heavy 10", Grizzly carries all the South Bends, Buck Chucks, Pratt Burnerd chucks;not too many people think they are cheap. I find that if I work the "off brand" drills over first with my Darax,they usually drill.No one thinks my time is worth anything, so this doesn't cost me any thing.Their Chinese gunsmith lathes have some good features(BTY Southbend is made in China now, as are a lot of other American Names).
