You’ve got the right attitude about all this. And to see you not act entitled with Ryonet is insanely refreshing. A man of honor respect and just common decency.

I’ve been watching this channel since the build in the basement at the old spot. I’ve come to learn and appreciate how much of a perfectionist you are. I also look forward to your new content so when it died down a bit it was frustrating. However once again whether you know it or not you continue to motivate people. This channel has become a life line of inspiration for so many. When everything is back up and running I know this channel will take off even more. Ryonet made the right decision choosing you and they’re going to win big because of it.

@varunnair2731 Год назад

Man.. I went through this on my current shop. Being only have used a manual before(Riley Hopkins 300).. I wanted an auto for bigger jobs as the business was growing. Small shop so I wanted to keep it quiet and figured a electric press would be best. Contacted anatol, their timelines were too long. Then someone locally was selling a Brown Electra Print and bought it. It was the worst mistake I made. The thing never held registration and overall just a terrible machine. Lost my ass on it.. but got rid of it and got an old school Workhorse Javelin. 20 year old press. Works like magic. Holds registration, and is loud because of the compressor but prints like a champ. Digging myself out of that hole now. You’re content has always been fun and very motivating! You’ll be slinging shirts and pumping orders out in no time!! Good Luck with the new press! Excited to see how it works 🙏🏽❤️

Some day I'm going to be on your spot 🤩 I can go on and on... Almost forgot about the auto 😏 i was expecting it to be replaced.

I got a used six-by-six one-time what a nightmare. Used and abused is definitely what it was. I could do a lot of single color prints at one time though 😂 somehow I still fell in love with screen printing. Got rid of that huge paper weight and sadly haven't gotten a new one after a year or so. I still have a dozen screens, flash dryer and all the chemicals and stuff cause I truly want to get back to it. Even on a 4x4. As an artist they go hand in hand

@theburnseffect Год назад

Bummer this is happening. Ive been running that press for little over a year now, coming from a manual (riley 300) and it has been a huge game changer. Have such a hard time looking back. We tried to keep our manual, but after a year just wanted the room since the auto chewed everything up so fast. I think the on-boarding process is super important especially for a newb on autos, and skipping that for sure would cause issues! But a used press that has not been refurbished yet is a crap shoot. Im sure they were told it was "like new" when they got it, but ROQ is pretty solid for us on the customer service end. Hope your 200% asap and can get caught up.

@leestuart38 Год назад

I definitely saw the potential in it aside from the issues, I just ended up with a lemon. I know the new one is going to be a way different experience.

@sanjaybarnes5717 Год назад

They catch you with pretty design other than that they are a shady company. They won't give you an upfront price for the machines. They say they don't do that because there are other things needed. I get that, but there should be a price for every model, then add on prices, then shipping. I don't like companies with tactics like this. Transparency builds trust. This is why this economy will never florish. People are always doing shady shit to pull more money in and other people pick up that same habit. I am looking forward to he review of you new machine. I am happy you posted this video.

@leestuart38 Год назад

Nobody advertises their pricing in the industry and for good reason. The cost of materials, manufacturing and shipping are constantly fluctuating so it's impossible to stick to a list price, especially when those factors change for every model in the lineup and change again depending on options. I don't list my screen printing pricing anywhere for the exact same reason, because those prices have to change on a moments notice due to the business climate and when you list a price you're stuck there.

@ryanmiller1856 Год назад

Videos are entertaining. Unfortunately the biggest thing I've learned is ROC and Ryonet are garbage. M&R is the only way to go. 2 Day install and zero issues for over 4 years. 3 man crew, 40 hours a week non stop.

@user-cm5xb1en1b Год назад

Maybe the issue was the ryonet screens you were using with garbage tension, or just that it wasn't an m&r or mhm...

I will admit there's been poor maintenance, remodel, and cannibalizing done to this machine before I started.

@devonstark2703 Год назад

I use an Anatol and the people they send out to fix or adjust our new press never seem to have enough experience. So our problems don’t get fixed and I do my best to fix and work through problems. Ultimately not what you want to deal with after spending 50 grand on something. I’ve been told that roq and m&r have better service though. Were you happy with the tech they sent out? Or was it more of an “ we give up, try a new press” thing.

@leestuart38 Год назад

There's definitely a lot of undertrained techs out there with all manufacturers, many of them with no print experience. The problem is the demand for autos is growing super quickly and they can't keep up, so most only go through 2 weeks of basic training and get sent out in the field.

@statusdesignshop4550 Год назад

Something doesn't add up... You bought a new home, land and big ass building. Spent over a year essentially out of business building a new base for your business. A custom manual printer was made but didn't hold registration. A high end used ROQ was brought in that couldn't be registered, with both having to be replaced. 80% loss in annual revenue with a ton of new liability now responsible for. It appears that $750,000 - $1,000,000 invested over a year and no revenue to speak of. Either your 20% of revenue is just off the charts or there is something else being built with a ton of outside funding. No other shop could allow this to happen and keep the lights on or even keep the roof over their head. Not that any explanation is owed to any of us because it's your business but, you're asking your followers to swallow something that's not even practical in the real world.

@leestuart38 Год назад

Lol everyone else understands it pretty easily. I'm very clear that all of this equipment is sponsored by someone, and I make a lot of outside revenue from this channel and other means like my 3 websites selling merch.
