<p>[QUOTE="superc, post: 1832036, member: 44079"]LoL!!!! That is the 3rd or 4th steel tool made in China I specifically know of failing that way. I had a Follower Rest from China do that on my lathe not too long ago. A discount pair of pliers a friend bought, and a 1" socket on a socket wrench someone else had. I was amazed when the Follower Rest suddenly shattered in mid operation as the bar it was holding was round and there shouldn't have been any stress. I would be so ticked if I had it happen to a vise too. Fortunately my own vise was made long ago in USA. After the Follower Rest went I gave up on their tools for anything except a desperation buy. Clearly their steel product manufacturing standards (or at least on what they export) aren't the same as those I grew up with here in the USA. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]302760[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
