thanks lee for openning the door. I have admitted on several occations that i am lazy. Being lazy is a another word for efficent. This is a concept that you have never grasped. On the other hand, it allows me to be creative. I am truely sorry that you aren't lazy, and that you are jelous of others that are. This realy shows when you continue to sell product that you could't have invented by yourself.
I find it interesting how many customers continue to kiss your back side until they have parted with enough money. You have on several occations shown your real face, including the recent post you made against myself and another upstanding cue maker.
I could go head to head with lee in any discusion about running cnc machines let alone buildng them. I doubt lee would have anything to contribute so i guess it wouldn't be fair. I made the mistake of goint to lee with an idea of building a machine. I had to explane to lee several times what i wanted to build until he got it. I had to actually stack the 80/20 up in a crude form for lee to even get a hint as to how the storm machine should be built. After lee understood i said i would come back and we would build it together. I didn't need lee to build it but i had interest in a resale market. Next thing i knew lee had built the machine. Now let me be clear here. Lee payed robert to assemble this machine giving him instruction. This he pointed out on his own. By the way, do the math here, $400 a week equals $10 an hour. Neither of them knew how i intended to use this machine. When i got my materials back, already assembled, i had to tear the machine apart and re-build it. As i did that, i made suggestions to you on how to improve it. Lee has wasted alot of time and money with materials that where not any good. This was not my fault. Lee had to pay someone else to asseble this machine, again not my fault that he himself is incapable of this work. I most certanly am and do. In fact, i work for the number 1 cnc control manufature in the world. My real job is to trouble shoot cnc machines.
I will not drag on and on though its not hard. I instead challagne any person that reads this post to: Call lee at brianna products and spend over 5 minutes talking to him about cnc machines. Then ask yourself if this man could realy build the storm machine without alot of help from someone with actual knowledge. If your answer is yes, then buy his machine. You will get what you deserve.
I did get what i deserved, i trusted that lee would do the right thing. I am now out alot of money and so are, i guess, at least 10 customers. They over paid for a machine, and for their troubles, the have a machine that will never preform as good as they are where intended to. In all fairness, they may not be awhere of what they have, lee certainly isn't.
Just to be fair, here is my newest machine that i built. Please notice that i did use the offset tailstock that lee sells. I actually had this built by the same machinest that makes his. The machinest is a great guy and does alot of lee's work. Again though, not a cuemaker.
that all being said. Lee at brianna products, stop making and selling my machine.
Jim.
