Thread: Machinists tools........

Hi guys, I have decided to buy Chinese tools......
It goes against my DNA, but I just cant wait for decent used gear to present itself!

I want a set of thin Parallels and a decent machinist vice for my Mill and a few other basic pieces...
There is an endless list of things id like, but these things are what I really need at the moment.

My question is this:
Can anybody give me advice on what to avoid or specific brands they have had success with?
I am aware some chinese gear is very good for its price, and also aware of the opposite....

Any decent advice appreciated thanks.
P.S. if anyone has anything they no longer need please let me know and maybe we can work out a deal?
cash or reloading consumables swap etc??

Cheers, 40mm
PM or mention me please so I know to look here.
