Re: 12 months in the making short story - Finally TP10 is up and running

Post by UK Printed Mugs »

Well 12 months ago I bought a large 75cm x 100cm heat press which was too large to get into our business unit. I knew this but had the dream idea that we would knock a wall down and put in some shutters.

Finally after 10 months we had some double doors fitted and got the press in.

Yesterday had power company fit 3 phase meter.

This morning had electrical contractors fit 3 phase sockets.

This afternoon had air compressor contractor fit and test compressor it needs.

AND FINALLY AFTER 12 LONG BLOODY MONTHS THE PRESS IS UP AND RUNNING.

Why am I saying this - well I'm sure for a lot of us running companies with employees it has been a very tough year. I had to let two members of production staff go a couple of months ago. Orders are good but quite frankly I am back to production myself and so with this heat press I can be 2-3 times as efficient as before.

I am literally just exhausted from all the hoops I've had to jump to get it up and running and thought by writing this it would be my way of saying - HELL YEAH - as no one else to high five! Virtually of course if I could!

Back to being the monkey again :-)

Hope you are all doing well.

Olly

Well that is something I hadn't noticed before. The Secabo TP10 is exactly the same as Adkins 750. Literally the same press. Absolutely the same - parts, control panel, switches e.t.c. Just different colour scheme. So is secabo a badged Adkins or other way round?

Secabo

Adkins

Oddly Adkins website down so technical problem or something more such as gone under? Or bought by Secabo :-)
