Luuuuuuuuuuuuucky! 

Out of curiosity was the morphing option available in single phase or just 3 phase? ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

244, You really need to prominently display on your web page the single phase option on all of your presses that it is available for. It very much would have influenced my purchase of my machine, so I can only guess at how many people shopping for new presses who don't have ready access to 3-phase, move on to other brands when they see only 3-phase options for many of your presses online.

My quote for getting 3-phase into my shop was >$30,000.00, that's how big of deal a single phase option was to me, I didn't think M&R made single phase machines in a big (Challenger II) 12/14.

I feel its time for an explanation, this thread has went on for a LONG TIME and I have received tons of pm's with questions.  The Gauntlet III that I was getting needs another month or so before its ready, 244 being a man of his word guaranteed my install by the end of the year, and guess what?  I will be printing on it tomorrow!  He gave me a CH3D in its place...how lucky can one man be?  As for the G3, I guess that's up to Mr. Hoffman on where it lands.  I want to again thank M&R and Rich Hoffman personally again, everytime I think WOW, he couldn't possibly do anything like that for me again, guess what?  He does it again!  I have had the pleasure of purchasing 8 presses and 5 dryers, 4 exposures units, and tons of other smaller items from M&R over my 16 years in this business and it has always been on another level.  I know there are other companies out there and I have spoken to ALL of them at some point, but I have to admit I got the blue tattoo right on my shoulder for anyone to see.  Thanks Rich, you are a badass!

Thank you for the input!We can make any voltage and phase but the list is too long. We put a note for special voltages please call factory for that purpose. Maybe we should make that more prominent.

I would put it in with the specs page, that's what I looked at from all the manufacturers. To be fair I was shopping used machines,  I would have called and asked if I was shopping new, but from looking at the specs of the M&R Challenger II's I figured all that was out there was 3-phase.

It's great to be able to put a bug in the ear of someone in power here!

...looking forward to my first Blue, just waiting for a good deal on a used 36-48" x 16-18' Heatwave/Sprint....  gotta be single phase, or convertible by someone knowledgeable. Just missed out on one out of Vancouver.
