Emmedue bridge saw for granite refurb part 2

Sunday, August 30th, 2009

Well, We are well under way with the complete refurb of this very popular granite bridge saw, As you can see we have stripped the bed completely and taken off and repaired/replaced all the multi directional rollers for easy movement of heavy material, We are currently sizing up the new wooden bed, Then the rollers will be bolted back onto the bed, The chassis has been stripped and repainted to look immaculate, The head bearings and axis bearings are next on the list, then the final electrical and mechanical test, More of that later in the coming weeks, We spend approx 3-4 weeks working on each machines using our OWN engineers. This machine is sold to a very shrewd client who saw what we had done to previous machines as he tracked the progress on our blog and decided he needed to order this machine before someone else did!! We have helped our client move onward with his business by part exchanging a small bench saw that he owned, This enables him to save money with National Masonry by being offered a firm and binding offer for his old machine witch is now unable to cope with the vast increase in his workload! You missed this one “Again” so don’t wait and miss the next machine to be completely refurbished and call Andy Bell on 07967385811 to order the next incoming machine!

Tuesday, August 18th, 2009

Second hand granite edge polisher is like new!! When Andy Bell from National Masonry made a courtesy call to Steve Smith of Granite Care Wigan to see if he was happy with Granite Care’s latest acquisition, A pre-owned fully refurbed granite edge polisher, Steve’s answer was” To be honest Andy I thought you had sent me a brand new machine by mistake”! “When the machine arrived I genuinely thought is was new! If I didn’t look at the identification plate I wouldn’t have known the difference”! “I’m really over the moon with it” “The polish is like glass and the condition of the machine is superb” The machine granite care purchased is a Marmo Meccanicca LCV 821 It has 8 in line polishing heads and 2 top and 1 bottom chamfer heads. Granite Care have bought numerous new and pre-owned stone machinery from National Masonry, They include 2 X Cobalm D13 R cnc bridge saws, 2 X Bavelloni cnc machines, 2 X Marmo Meccanica edge polishers, Dust benches, Cranes, Hoists, slab trolleys, Etc etc, The list is endless! But as Steve quite rightly says, “Sometimes things go wrong in this business, And when they do you need a supplier that can help, And in our experience Andy Bell pulls out all the stops to help! Sometimes he will travel thru the night to deliver a polishing pad to keep us going!”
