Have you recieved the parts yet, and if so, how are they? Good to know that they are support them, with the following caveat:

I'd be a bit leery of Grizzly parts for them. These old lathes are getting worn out, but good parts still exist. I hate to say it, but Ebay has become the place where parts are found. There is a pretty vibrant support and parts industry for these without buying Chinese stuff. But what works, work. Thanks for passing this on.

That Heavy 10 is a great machine.
