Sunhill machinery?

Does anyone have any experience with any of Sunhill Machinery's tools? They apparently sell through Steve Wall Lumber, but I have never heard of them before. Their stuff looks pretty solid and their prices are right, but I definitely wanna know what I am getting into. if anyone knows anything I would appreciate the info.

Sunhill is on par with Grizzly and Yorkcraft. They are perfectly fine machines. Of course while at Wall you can look at the Oliver stuff. I love the new oliver machinery.

Good Luck,

John

Re: Sunhill machinery?

I purchased a slightly used 6" Sunhill jointer for a friend and he has been delighted with it. It's a smooth running machine. IIRC some of their equipment is manufactured by G-Tech, a company that makes tools for Grizzly and others.
