re: ARE TOOLS MADE OVERSEAS OF POOR QUALITY AND IF SO WHO'S TO BLAME

I am giving serious consideration to a Grizzly 8" jointer. Aside from my tenon jig, I have no Grizzly equipment. It’s all Delta, Powermatic, Jet……… Generally, people indicate a lot of bang for the buck, which includes a spiral blade system. Looking at old iron, the price starts getting too close to the new Grizzly and I have to keep in mind my widow might have to sell things for what I said they cost.
