the JET lathe is the same as the Harbour Freight lathe not a chinese
copy ,but chinese built,same as selling a Suzuki as a Chevy same vehicle
,just badged differently and Chevy charges a couple grand more ,it
really amazing someone assumes a lathe is different because it is a
different color and different stickers are on it ,companies have been
doing this for years and as long as they don't claim it as being made in
USA in selling it ,they can keep on doing it legally
