Owain,
it was strange but today I receive a Harbor Freight catalog. Right there
in the middle of it was an exact duplicate of the Eastwood unit. Exact.
Interesting also was that the catalog price is $149.99. But when I
logged onto the HF web site and entered the item number I see that it s
only $119.99 if ordered online. Now I am not saying it is the same
unit, but Eastwood gets their stuff from somewhere, eh? Same colors,
same turret head, etc.
Http://www.harborfreight.com and enter this item number: 99642
For your comparison shopping...
