M&R tech showed up and hell in less than 45 mins had the heads on. The feeling you have when you buy M&R is a calm relaxing feeling that every thing is going to be alright!:):)

If you do what they ask, and have air and electric ready, and everything uncrated, the heads staged and a few guys to help, those dudes will jam on that thing and have you up and printing in no time.

Now tell us, were there any technical issues and were they left unresolved?

Fast delivery because:
1. It's a leap year?
2. Another Mfg has hurt sales so bad they had this laying around for awhile and were trying to sell it?
3. They have their **** together and can produce and deliver a good product in a reasonable amount of time.

Nice press, lots of luck with it.

Ask Todd about his blue hair. (he got in some blue ink while on my install).

Todd is a real descent guy who knows his shlt. This press is shimm free, and all the arms are level. 3 hrs and we are this far along. Truly amazing!!

Congrats Jeff.

My install was real similar. Todd and John came in on a Monday morning and the press was spinning by noon. We printed 3 jobs on it in the after noon (never used a auto before that).

We printed 6 jobs on it the next day.

Remember we are small timers, 6 jobs in a day was a big deal for us, a 2 person shop.

No shims? I thought I was the only one on earth that didn't need shims on his new press? There are more? That's great news, congrats Jeff. Pretty simple transaction isn't it?

No shims? Did he at least spray it down with super shield?

I don't see any super shield. He has used one of our employee's fo about 1.5 hours, that's it. Todd the M&R tech is on top of his game,I don't see this press taking 5-6 days like our Printex 10 color install. Todd isn't on his phone all the time and he doesn't take breaks, other than lunch yesterday. If those who are considering buying an auto, think M&R if you want SERVICE, its is truly an amazing experience the way they treat you. Gotta love old " tested" technolgy. LOL!:) I have some new technolgy for sale if anyone wants it.

So I guess it's safe to say that you now understand why we are all "blind blue balling brand loyalists" ;)

It's fun to watch it all come together so much more smooth than your other deal. Happy for you, now don't let yourself get manipulated like that again your life and you will be set.

That averages out to 2 heads installed per day. You'd think they'd all work really, really well.

:)

Congrats on the new machines. No shame it using what WORKS.

We just implemented some brand loyalty at the Evo household - brand new 2012 Impreza Sport hatchback. Our Outback finally gave up the ghost at 214k hard miles.

Only 214K? That's weak...just kidding. I had to retire a vehicle in similar fashion. A 93' Land Cruiser with 267K miles. The last 80-100K were hard miles that were off road doing on-site construction inspections. Home building sites and rough cuts were the norm and it got rode hard. I blew the head gasket and the shop I had do the repairs didn't mill the head correctly and the head cracked. It's still sitting at my dad's place because one of these days I'll find the time to drop a new motor in it and then start modding the hell out of it. I plan on lifting it, putting armor like front/rear ARB bumpers, sliders, snorkel, roof rack, etc.
