Some time ago, in another thread, I posted the opinion that buying a press was a crap shoot, as it is impossible for a manufacturer to make a press plumb, square and perpendicular to exact tolerances, at a price we would be willing to pay. Those that took me to task for that opinion used the Redding T-7 as a shining example of manufacturing art. "Superb" was the adjective used. Well, I'm glad you got what you paid for. Rick didn't, and has no recourse apparently, as in, "tough luck".
I had hoped that a Redding rep would come on Board, Viking Berserker style, a la Freedom Arms, and maybe explain some of their tolerance specs. In which case I was prepared to fold like a cheap suit. No such luck. If it goes out the door with the Co name on it, it has to be good.
Some years ago a coworker processed a batch of parts that were later found to be out of tolerance. While waiting for the axe to fall he asked a long timer what he might expect. His reply, "It's a funny thing, if they don't need the parts for a while you're in big trouble. If they needed the parts out the door yesterday, you've got nothing to worry about." As it turned out, he had nothing to worry about.
