No April Machines

I think I just had my million dollar idea, a machine tool simulator game for the computer. Bet I could sell them to all the guys waiting for their new toys! LOL

I want in on the IPO... LOL
 
Open the left picture, enlarge it by clicking, count the unpainted, partially assembled machines behind this nearly finished one....It appears that he received the machines either broken down, or unassembled, and does a considerable amount of assembly before they are ready for delivery.

That is a photo of the factory floor in China. The give-away is that the bases are shown only painted with primer, and the heads are shown with bare cast-iron.. Matt doesn't do final finishing or painting of the machines, only inspection.

Joined this site a while ago but hadn't posted yet. I work about 20 minutes away from Matt's place and ordered a PM25 back in December. Just found out on Friday that I am getting a hip replacement on may 13th and won't be allowed to drive for 6 weeks. So if I had to guess, they will be ready on the 14th so I will have to agonize for 6 long weeks....
 
I should add that I talked to Matt via email on Friday and he has agreed to hold it as long as I need. No questions asked.

You want to sell your game to Matt so that he can send out a free copy to everybody who orders a machine.

That's what I get for making assumptions. DRAT.
 
Mat has in some of the PM-25 with the brushless Dc motor.

He has sent a few people to me for the CNC kits I make. I think he said he has 20 or so.

dont know about the lathe.
 
Hey guys, no need to worry, we should be able to ship PM25's very soon here. They were due in here April 25th, they are just a few days late now, but very very close, should not have any problems at all. I am guessing within the next 5 days or so from what our broker said.

And Yes, Arizonavideo makes some nice CNC Kits for these if anyone is looking.

MKindler, do not worry, if you are stuck in the house and it will work out on your end we can run it up for you, I think you only live about 40 minutes away right? You have waited long enough, no reason to make you wait even more!

And guys who mention the web site, I am working and trying so hard to get a great site done. I just got back from court this morning, from a web design company who is suing us, because they said they did a complete web site and everything for us, and that I wont pay the balance. Here is a link if anyone is interested qmt.gmmstaging.com What a joke. Not a horrible site, but they are saying they have 180 hours in work in it, and there is no way.

This was started back in July 2014. And this is everything that had done until January 27th this year. None of those pictures on the top are mine, they were all their ideas. But they are trying to say they have 180 hours in to this site. Every other designer I have talked to says 10 hours at most. And they want $16,000.00 (Yes, $16,000.00, no extra zero in there) for what they have done on that site. I am getting so frustrated that I just might go to web design school and do it myself. What a joke. I was up until 3am getting things ready for court this morning, when I should be answering your questions and working on machines. That is what really frustrates me. But it was just a local court, and the lawyer says they do not follow the law, its more opinions, so chances are he has no idea what either side is talking about, so will split it down the middle, then we have to appeal and go to real court. More of a waste of my time.

Oh and our logo is nothing to do with this web designer.

Anyway, nothing to worry about on the PM-25MV Mills, they are not far out at all. I know what it is like to wait, I get just as excited as you guys do about machines coming in. But for us, its all just work, I don't to play with them as much as I want to anymore!

Perfect timing on those too, we just got another warehouse too, so much more space for inventory. Finishing up moving things in now and getting back to normal, our address did not change, just added space in the same industrial park here.

Lots of machines coming in soon, we have plenty of PM-932's if anyone wants any of those too, we will try to always have those as a stock item, fast to ship.

I also want to keep the PM-25's in stock and a bunch of other machines that are really popular, and we have some new models coming out soon here too (Big brother to the 1340GT, a Taiwan made 14x40 with 2" Spindle Bore), a smaller geared head mill, the Sieg SC10 with modifications (Its not quite just the factory offering, not huge changes but quite a few smaller ones that add up)

Lots going on here, if only I can get this darn web site done to show everyone! I do have a new, local guy who seems great though, 10 days and he has more done than the place above ever did.
 
Is there any news on the arrival of the PM1127 lathes?
 
I already know I'm going to be waiting a while because I think I'm somewhere near #70 on the list of machines to inspect/ship.

I already have all the tooling and accessories though, so as soon as it shows up I'll be ready to go.
