I decided to throw the dice on this AliExpress work stop for milling setups. It was 18.18 USD plus I opted for increased 12.82 USD shipping (via China post registered airmail with tracking). It arrived within a couple weeks.

Bottom line, seems pretty decent for the money. I had my eye on a red one but for some strange reason red was always 10$ more despite otherwise looking identical. So I opted for the LA Rams color scheme LOL. It came just like the pics, a single M10 quick release handle, M10 capscrews, 8mm stop rod & T-nut which fit my table slot. As you can see by side by side pics, I have a similar one from N-Am vendor which costs <cough> more. The parts on the black one are configured a bit different but both have similar range of motion & both are aluminum body. The Ali model is a bit bigger, maybe 90% machining quality & 80% anodizing quality. It seems to clamp nice & rigid which is all it has to do, so I guess we will see over time. I would encourage you to sort the vendors from low to high (including shipping) because they seem to vary like crazy and I find it hard to believe there are multiple manufacturers.
