    From what I have been told, they are "built" on a table, no machines, no machine work, and no machine balancing...Just grind them and sell them.

    Well I just lost my big post I was working on because of the token expired thing again. Alan if your reading this please check into that.

    Anyway I wouldn't be surprised. Check out the metal shavings I found in the compressor housings.
