This is how you manufacture in America and still stay competitive. Nice clean factory, modern cold forging processes, and top-of-the-line machines. They blurred the name/model out for whatever reason, but many of the milling machines they were using were Brothers. They're very fast machines, perfect for automated and mass production.

You can bet Harbor Freight will be watching that video and taking notes.
Notes on what? There aren’t any secrets in the video, and HF isn’t going to be investing in any factories, they’re a reseller. They contract to factories in wherever they can get their brands made the absolute cheapest.

It's only a matter of time before HF will be gobbling up the factories if they haven't already done so.
