hi all
we are a new..ish small framing business in glasgow and have been going around 9 months now and as our clientel grows we will be in the market to upgrade our underpinner...currently using a basic cassese cs79 foot operated but will either go for the Minigraf 144 or the new guys Inmes IM-4 both are pneumatic and just really interested in both machines and/or any reliability issues with both machines.
Also would be interested if anyone knew of any second hand machines currently on the market
Andy

Hi
There is a lot of secondhand machines around at the moment, I would look for a 199Mxsl or a 299Mxsl- you won't be disappointed with its performance

Re: new underpinner info reqd.
I would definately try to get to the spring fair next week to try them out.
The 144 is the new version of the older 44 I believe?
I went to buy the minigraf 4 years ago and after comparing the 4 to 44 there was no comparrison. I love the 44!
You dont see many second hand ones though as they are not as popular as the minigraf 4.
I'm sure you will opt for the 144 after trying it out.
I now have a minigraf MP but still use the minigraf 44 quite often as its so quick and easy to use.
Cheers
Steve
