[TheForge] replacement 4X6 horiz band saw

[Albin Drzewianowski]

Yes,   I have heard the same story but...........

It is what happens in the quality control/inspection station that makes the
difference.  Machines that get the highest marks from QC  go to the
companies that pay more.  The machines that get the poorest marks from QC go
to the companies that pay the least.

Wouldn't be surprised of the old saying:  "Never buy a Ford or Chevy
manufactured on a Monday or a Friday"  applies to Chinese workers as well.
Monday's and Friday's production ends up going to HF and Wednesday's units
end up with  JET and GRIZZLY.

The lyf so short, the craft so long to lerne.
