   Dario,

   I just purchased the Bridgewood and so far so good.  I would rather have the General Canadian 8" but at $1800 compared to the Bridgewoods $900 the choice was easy.  I've bought a few tools from Wilkie including Generals and the company is great when it comes to service.  The Grizzly I never considered.  The Bridgewood does have the Baldor motor which is U.S.  The Grizzly is 100% Taiwanese. 

   Good Luck with whichever you choose,

   Lar

   Nicobie,

   I think you meant this for Dario.  Anyway, I just received the Sunhill catalogue in the mail yesterday.  Also, you may want to take a look at the North State.  It seams to have everything the Sunhill has and it sells for $795.  It can be purchased from LeNeave Machinery in Charlotte, NC 1-800 442-2302.  The guy there told me the North State is a replica of the older Delta DJ-20.  It also has a magnetic switch.

   Hi

   I have a grizzly an it's ok too

   Very sturdy.  If I was going to buy a top line I would  look toward  powermatic and delta.
