It's a craftsman, Taiwanese made, but then again what the hell isn't these days? ::)
It's actually a Workman! I read the schpeal and it sounded OK but knowing my luck it'll be junk! I saw the add and thought for giggles I'll put a 50cent bid in and a couple of days later my Missues said that I had won, and at that stage it still had like five days to go!
Atleast that's what I though. But they took the bid and then basically demanded the money.. That'll teach me to be a smart ass.. :o

I've got an old Enco that I've used the hell out of since 1976.  Does the job BUT I'll never buy another cheap import. Currently I feel with a bit of looking there will be bargains to be had of older machines that are of FINE quality. Be patient and look around.

It's just a little out of his way. Not much.
