Terry,

Very off topic, but you might be surprised! I've been seen at Harbor
Freight. ;^) We have a brand new one in Rochester. I've have some
Grizzly stuff too. I just wouldn't buy measuring or cutting tools there
and am very careful about what I do buy. It seems like all to often, you
end up rebuilding what you buy at places like that. The Big Yellow Box
had the best of everything for me to use for my job, but when building a
home shop, most folks, including myself, just don't have megabucks to
spend on equipment.
