Also, one of these threads, barney says that M&R uses weak screen clamps, there isn't anything weak about those clamps. From what I see on the stang, it just has 2 little feet on each side holding the screen in a thin frame holder. The C3 is a solid bar, with screen holders that looked to me to be close to half inch thick aluminum if I remember correctly, there wasn't anything weak about the screen holding system on the C3 at all. In fact it was impressive to say the least.

Here's an interesting video, gee, I think that's a pretty tough print by someone that knows what equipment works.

That's a funny video the very beginning of that rasta song sounds like they are saying M&R three times.

Unhappy Re: Robert Barnes from Spider Machines - Modern Technology -vs- Old Conventional Desi

Barney,Barney,Barney; When will you learn, the M&R C III is a great Press and everybody in the Industry also says it is. Don't even try to put it or any other
of M&R presses down, When you have been trying to copy them for years with
little or no success! So do every one a favor and crawl back under that rock
you came from>

2010 World Speed Record Set on Challenger III - YouTube
Fastet setups for sure ... 1/4 mile race for pinks (not the Mustang -or- MHM market) sorry

You just can't knock the C3. In fact I saw where quite a few of the Giant shops that were running Formulas for years are now swapping out for C3's. Now, if they had any reserves, you would think they would look in a different direction, but they aren't they are moving to the C3. Serious machine. One Big shop by me, SS designs, they do Disney, "legit" not knock of Disney, and quite a few other huge brands are using C3's now and loving them.

Let me be clear though, I'm not knocking that Mustang at 360 graphics, it looks like a really nice piece of gear. Just saying, the C3 is the real deal!!! My friend Pat in Orlando love's their machine. In fact I remember someone bashing the crap out of him a year and a half back. Well I'm happy to report, that C3 has actually made them able to pick up a lot more clientele and opened a whole new market to the point that they are planning to relocate to a larger space and possibly add another one. Now, it seems to me they did just fine. Had they gone with a Playtex, they might be out of business trying to keep up with spraying static free crap in their control panel to keep it running =). Looks the the Challenger 3 may have been a big investment, that has paid off big time for a small shop that in 1 year of owning it, went from 3 people to 7 and needing more room for growth. Why promote another shop you ask? Well, they are our friends and have been a big help to us, and bottom line, you reap what you sow, I choose to sow good. Hey here is another cool vid =) Happy Saturday to ya, we are printing our butt's off today, looks like good reaping to me =) Try sowing good some time.
