Grizzly Tools

Who could say no to Grizzly Tools? It is quickly making a name for itself by being the America?s favorite and one of the largest machinery companies in the US. These tools have been approved by thousands of people and can be found in a wide variety of shops, from those of hobbyists all the way to large industrial producers.

With Grizzly Tools, there is no middleman or distributor. Selling their own product, instead of someone else?s, drastically reduced the average price of their items. Nobody beats its high quality, durability and low cost.

You can either purchase Grizzly Tools at their showroom/outlet stores, from their free mail order catalog or from their comprehensive online store. Their showroom/outlet stores are usually hundreds of thousands of square feet filled with practically all of their products and you can find them in Pennsylvania, Washington and Missouri.

They offer you and extensive variety of tools including bandsaws (metal and wood), drill presses, sanders, planers, grinders, milling machines and much, much more. Ordering Grizzly Tools is quick and easy due to the fact that 99% of their items ship the same day.

Why settle for other tools when you can have high quality tools at a very reasonable price? Definitely look into Grizzly Tools! I personally guarantee it.

No I don't buy from spammers.

No, I don't much like chinese crap tools anyway. But I definitely don't buy chinese crap tools from spammers, even if I've lowered my standards far enough to consider chinese crap tools.

Remind me to toss your catalog in the recycle the next time I see it. I might have bought some stuff from it, but I certainly won't after this.

In short, me, and anyone else that actually likes this newsgroup.

Em... Trust me. Grizzly wouldn't have endorsed or approved on this post. The -OWNER- is active on several forums and has reacted, strongly, to his employees "mis-behaving" on-line.

As to their tools, I own a (nearly) 20 year-old TS and a 2 year-old BS. Both are excellent.

I have looked at every lathe they make, and wouldn't buy one.

I've been using a Grizzly lathe for many years now, still works great, so perhaps it's a matter of taste?

As for the rest of my Grizzly "army", yeah, they're definitely not crap. You may have to tweak the extremeties (knobs, dials, paint) but the castings and mechanics have so far been of really good quality.

To me Grizzly's quality arc seems to be like Jet's. In the early days of Jet tools they were the worst junk you could legally sell as tools, but now they have become a manufacturer of many fine tools and machines. Grizzly seems to be going the same way. Maybe not as quickly, but times are different. Some Grizzly tooling is fine, other not so fine, but I have seen a constant improvement.

Actually, the charter of this group specifically permits on-topic commercial posts, not to exceed one every other week. Grizzly makes turning equipment, so would fall w/in that category.

It's those stupid shoe ads that get me!

I did one internet order from Griz years ago, which they screwed up and later canceled.. Not happy with their customer service but that doesn't (I hope) effect their tools.. I have noticed that a lot of their lower end stuff looks identical to Harbor Freight stuff, sometimes painted green and marked up quite a bit..

Some of the castings come from the same factories that the tools from Harbor Freight come from. Beyond that there is a big difference because Grizzly puts in much better bearings and finishes, additionally they have had a good quality control for many years, something HF still doesn't have. I am lucky in that I can go to Bellingham, WA to the showroom where customer service is excellent.

Brian.. I should have made myself clearer on that, I meant more of the non-machine stuff like diamond hones, chip brushes, etc... Of course, I've seen the HF 3 hone set at other "big name" sites, always for a lot more than HF costs..

I'd love to visit Griz.. We have a son stationed at Fort Lewis, but that's 1.200 miles away.. Love to visit the "scratch & dent" sales rooms..
