I checked the box that is with the 38 caliber mold and it says Carpenteria. They look identical so I think they are the same vintage.

Bret, I picked up a Grizzley Small gunsmiths lathe with the DRO a year ago. Now my Craftsman mostly sits around. I think Brian could use it, so I'll loan it to him until he decides if he likes it or...
