M&R Challenger I

[Prosperi-Tees]

He turned it in to his manager who had not processed it. You should get a quote shortly. I still think its a waste of money to buy this machine but I understand the reasoning.

Thanks Rich, I am hoping to get out from under this and into something else. I understand it is not worth it to fix it and hope the estimate reiterates that to the insurance company.

[Prosperi-Tees]

I want to say thank you to Rich and Dan Goldberg from M&R for getting me the info I needed.

Now the question is do I keep it? I would need to negotiate a depreciated value for the press which would come off the claim amount. I could then either scrap it or sell parts from it. Or I could let the ins co sell it at auction and be done with it.

I would just step away, don't complicate the deal with the insurance co., especially if they've agreed to a full refund.

Here is my take....for what it is worth

get the money from the insurance and buy new.  You know I am going to say M&R.  so buy a new one ( no problems involved and you can build a new house with the wood they give you from crating) go to Chicago and learn how to run it and maintenance on it.  You will make more money off that from day one then trying to learn a used press and have the problems that can come with a used press.  ie.  look at where you are now.  I know if you bought a new M&R you would have had a new one already there and they would deal with the shipping issue!

just my .0000002 cents

new, or like new. If you can find something that is under a year old, you should be able to save some money and still get financing on it.

Riddle me this... On the valve assembly (Mac) of the m&r challenger 1, when these machines originally left the factory did they contain varistors anywhere in the wiring of the valves. I'd don't think they did but a friend says otherwise, so help me win a bet!!

they were standard but there were a few that got out without them. Later on the varistor was built into the coil by Mac. In a way you are both right!

Thanks! Is there any sort of diagram available that indicates where the varistors go?
