Yup.

But the problem is, while an American made unit may be "Top" quality, you
can usually find one Made In Japan for 2/3 of the price, and just as good.

Sometimes I need something for a special purpose, or a single use, or to
perform some crazy experiment with. Then it's off to the Dollar store
where the "Made in China" label is prominent. I know it's only going to
last one or two uses (or less if I'm trying some crazy experiment...) but
I also probably saved a boatload of money, too.
