That doesn't ring any bells here, Jon, What sort of stuff did they sell? I am half-heartedly looking for a rotary table, smallish but without any huge backlash, for use on the g0704. A 4" chuck would hold most of what I might do. I have one now, but backlash is relatively huge and variable because the bull gear is eccentric, and it hasn't a working well enough as a clamp facility to hold against cutting forces. Best I've been able to do is draw the bolt down, and injecting air at 100 psi or so into the seat to unlock it enough that a 225 oz motor can turn it. That of course drives the grease out of the central bearing too. Gotta be a better way. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
