If you ever wonder why more people buy M&R equipment watch this video. Just to put into prosective, the Mustang has ONE part time guy in chicago that works on the Mustang after he gets off his day job. Then there is Robert the sales and service team, that equals 2 people and maybe 5 in Poland. That is 7 people vs hundreds at M&R. Makes you want to buy from Barnes LOL!

I watched all the videos Tuesday night, awesome. I really wish I could have gone up there when I was invited, still one of my biggest disappointments in a long time.

Invite is still valid Alan. You are welcome anytime!

I have seen it with my own eyes. It's nuts, I highly recommend taking the tour. It certainly helped make my purchase easier.

Videos are awesome!

To put it in perspective, there are more people using the restroom at any one time at M&R than are employed in total at many screen print press manufactures.

Hoffman is the KING of this business, not because he is the biggest. He is the KING because he is the most passionate in this industry, Period!!

Barnes is still the biggest QUEEN in our business!

It is an awesome experience seeing both M&R facilities. The most amazing thing to me is how smooth the entire operation flows. Things just get done there period.

We have all M&R equip, but never took the tour. I would like to go someday if Rich has hookups for my motorhome. LOL

Those videos are awesome. I almost freaked when Rich mentions one of the machines having to have solid concrete 12 feet down in the ground to stop the vibrations. Very impressive. I love the crow's nests too!!!!!! You guys sure know how to maximize the use of floor space. Amazing to see, and very inspiring to see how it started as a small warehouse space and keeps growing. Cool how you guys left the old exterior wall texture from your original shop. Niki and I can't wait to get the time to come up there for a tour!!!
