You should be able to save topics into a favourites on here. I have just purchased a second hand morso - so no doubt I will have these sorts of queries!

Hi Jessica

Sorry to hear of your loss, I understand that you wish to sale this as a job lot, but if that doesn't materialise then I would been interested in the Keencut System 4000 depending on price.

I am based in Somerset, so collection will not be an issue either.

Many Thanks
Dan

Same here, purchased a reconditioned Gunnar F1 Hybrid. Paid a little more than buying from Mr Joe Bloggs however the piece of mind is there. Its delivered and installed with training and the after support is fantastic if needed

I do a fair amount of Memorabilia, and any plaques I need I order from EBay. A bit of searching and you can find most styles needed. I have used a seller called Shimieshams who is very good. Just need to allow a couple of days for postage. Hopefully an image will be attached with an example of a pla...

I'm taking delivery of an F1 Hybrid next week an I've gone for the HT24

IFGL - just out of interest, what do you have now?

Thanks for the replies.

I see the small silent Bambi's have a 50% Duty Cycle? Eg, 10 minutes on, 10 off. Up to a max of 30 minutes on, 30 off.

Is this normal? Can you run them for longer?!

Does the BB24 have a letter after it? I see there are a few.

Is that running a CMC as well? Does it require the yearly checks?

Good evening all, I am looking to take the next step with my mount cutting, so looking to purchase a refurbished Gunnar F1 Hybrid. Now, I know next to nothing when it comes to compressors other than a little bit or research done over the net. The spec of the CMC says I need a minimum of 6 bar, and 2...

Thanks for the reply. Looking at the Gunnar F1 with the Hybrid Head. With the replacement controller, did you have to buy this new or did you have the option for a repair/refurbished controller? I don't want to take the plunge, an then get caught needing to replace a controller at great expense if y...

I am speaking with Sarah at Gunnar as wel who has given me some history to the machinel, but you can't have too much information. If it turns out Gunnar are particularly expensive for parts then I may need to review the manufacturer of choice!

Would you suggest machines should be serviced yearly?

Hi all, I'm am in the market for a second hand CMC, and have seen one advertised but it has the original controlled connected by a Serial port? Not a problem, as you can get a converter I know to USB, but the scary thing just mentioned was the cost of a new controller if it fails! In the region of £...

Would you have a price for the Gunnar CMC?

Only an hour away, so collection wouldnt be a problem.

I am relatively new to all this framing, it looks like a Gunnar F1, but is it the Hybrid version?

Am I the only one that cant see a CMC actually listed here?

If there is one available, I would be interested as well, and I am fairly local!

But I am assuming it may not be available as part of the sale?

Do you have a photo, and price in mind for the Morso?

Hi

Please could you PM me some more details as well please?

Probably the same as the guys above!

thanks

What sort of price are we looking at?

And is it a specific model? Any pics?

Storage is not the only reason to go with chop and despite it being more expensive chop can make good economic sense. If you stock a usable amount of 15 - 20 mouldings you have tied up a fair amount of capital in stock. You may well want to offer your customer a much wider choice of mouldings. chop...

Hi All, I am now in a position where I will be able to construct frames. Initially I am looking to use the chop service - Purely because of the storage issues that I will have, and that I believe this should stop wastage at the moment. With the chop service (Currently looking to use Lion) I apprecia...
