It'd be interesting to know how many actual mfrs of these knockoffs
there are. I've seen them branded Sharp, Feeler, Vectrax (MSC's house
brand), Wilton, Ganesh (despite the unfortunate choice of an Indian
name, it's apparently Taiwanese), and probably a couple others.



They are all basically made by the same small group of factories, we
in the trade affectionately call The Red Dragon Noodle and Machine
Tool Collective
