Buy American...or European.
Avoid the Chinese stuff.  The castings break.
They look the same in the adds but in a side by side comparison, they are
different.

Subject: [Shop-talk] Metal Shrinker?

I need to do some metal shaping for my '31 Ford
project (www.dougbraun.com), and I need to get a metal
shrinker (the kind where you put the edge of the sheet
metal between two jaws and pull a lever).  I have seen
them for sale from Eastwood and (naturally) for less
money from HF and various Ebay people.

Has anybody used any of these?  Is there likely to be
a quality difference between Eastwood's and HF's, or
are they all made in China anyway?  Anyone got a used
one to sell?

Thanks,

Doug
