Sorry Ed. Here are some positives. The calipers from Starrett run $1200, but from Shars only a mere $80 and they meet every expectation. Same for the $90 height gage and $35 magnet. I forgot to include the $50 3-jaw chuck with only .001" runnout.. Wonderful stuff for a shop that makes no profit.
These are good tools from China. You get it, open the box and are pleased with the contents and price. It's a good purchase. This is what we expect as consumers, rather than having the thing fall apart in your hands the first time it's used.
