Best manual machine for Ultion, new Yale etc please


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

getting asked more and more for these drilled type keys.

I was offered a Chinese machine at a decent price compared to the Mustang, but I like the cut of the mustangs jib, seems a good solid machine.

As much as I would love a computer machine I hopefully only have a few years left before I chuck it so £1.5K against £8K is a no brainer.

What do you guys think??

 

cheers...

Mustang is a great versatile machine and well worth the small investment I have two and there are really used and if they go wrong or in need of a service you can send it to rollings and have it completely overhauled for about 150 including pick up and delivery and through experience it’s a great express service 

my opinion anyway

I like the mustang, it’s got plenty of extras with it like tilting jaws and specialist clamps, I like the built in drawer too. My only issue with it is that although you can change the speed of the motor, I’ve never found it to be as strong as the punto and seems to take longer to cut keys.

But wouldn't you still need an account with Brisant to get the blanks to cut the keys? Last time I spoke with Brisant I was totally put off.

I don’t like dealing brisant so we use Nigel Rose much better company and very good to deal with
