Just got an email from someone that has a refurbed 6/8 Gauntlet for sale mid 90s model. Any opinions?

Talk to Homer over on SPOF. He bought a used Gauntlet a year ago of about that era I believe. Not 100% sure it was a gauntlet but I know he had issues with the way either the squeegee or flood bar stayed pressed down on the screen all the time and it made it hard to tweak the registration on a screen if needed. He bought some upgrade kit but the last I heard it still did not resolve that issue for him.

Yep, a 94 Gauntlet.

He had several issues but here is one talking about the squeegee flood bar thing.

Probably way to old for me to mess with being a new auto printer. Well not one yet but you know what I mean.

Mid 90's, they don't last long for a model that was one of their better built classes.

They last a long time, if not why is it still around. Do yourself a favor, don't listen to theses clowns.
