Thread: Why is everything you buy such rubbish!!

....This thread with 86 posts and 3739 views since 7Nov must be classed as popular but it doesn't have much to do with Model Engineering....
 
Anyone ever wondered what today's model engineering scene would be like without cheap Chinese tooling ?
 
I suspect it would be much smaller as many of us would only be able to look at some lucky fellows expensive 30 year old British built lathe and wish we could afford one.
 
I certainly wouldn't be able to afford a lathe AND a milling machine.
