Read my other email I posted earlier - I stated they do sell some good
stuff. I own a tire mounting stand, drill press, arbor press and chop saw
that all work great.

But I looked at a end mill they were selling and the table had so much play
that I could turn a crank one way then start turning the other and the wheel
would go at least a full turn before the table started moving.

You could be surprised...the right-angle air drill I just got there
has a Jacobs chuck on it.  Sheet-metal body like you'd find on any
hand tool, not a 3B or anything like that, but a very nice-looking
chuck nonetheless.  And short of X-raying it, the drill itself seems
very well made.
