Well, at the time I had no reason to think they sucked. They were recommended to me by another practical machinist.com forum member.

It could have worked but didn't.

Live n learn.

Still shoulda listened to dad.  :P

You should at least post up on that website to tell everyone how much they suck

a completely different way than you, you will be open to understand how that
 perspective

Its them. They quoted 14-21 days to repair and ship. I checked in at 14 days only to find out they couldn't locate some parts and really had no idea when they might be able to have things fixed.

I told him to return it unrepaired as I couldn't wait indefinitely. He got all snotty and was rambling about how they had 24 hours and $300 in parts in it.

Not my make the beast with two backsin problem buddy.

They waited a week to ship it back so I got it the Monday after he said id have it costing me seven more days. I'm convinced they did that intentionally.

Send them a bill for the extra down time. It'll get their attention.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

Work in process.

Fire truck valve handles. He sent me a valve and asked me to make handles for the next size up valve.  I drew it up in cad and expanded it 20%  Did the turn work and mill setup this morning.

That's the plan but I'm questioning if it will work well.
