Kondia Turret mills have come up recently plus Condor.
Anyone have any experience of these makes?
A Bridgeport is what I am looking for but everything I see is c**p!

Isn't the Kondia a far-eastern Blidgepolt? Looking at pics (e.g. on ebay), it looks like a direct clone/copy of a j-series!
Being far-eastern, the fit + finish probably won't be any great shakes, but I'd suspect the working parts might interchange....

You may find that Kondia is a Spanish company and that the Spaniards are highly respected machine tool builders. Mark.

The "King Rich" machines sold by XYZ are "Far Eastern" but I thought were reasonably well respected, or am I wrong (again)! Kondia are sold by Clausing in the US I believe. Not sure who marketed them here in the UK.
Still looking with budget needing to rise daily after seeing photos or actual machines.
