found at BigLots! I took a chance on it (how precise does a roller stand >need to be?)
>16" roller length; 27.5"-42" height. Looks equivalent to the $20 one at the >Borg.
>Big Made in China sticker.
"Made in China" = "garbage" in most cases, particularly if there's no brand name (or one you've never heard of).

It's a roller stand, not a jack plane or combo square! The roller stands I paid $30 for are also made in China, and there really isn't much to go wrong on it.
I'll bet the OP bought the same thing I have for 1/3 the price.

Hah! I bought 4 of the 12" chi-com rollers + brackets from HF when they were on sale for $2 each. They managed to screw up one by welding the center shaft off axis such that the roller goes up/down about 1/4" as it rolls....
