So in JTJT shopmaster owner's machining world #2 in his reply letter (BTW 34 years in business and awesome letter head?!?!) I'm sure you have sent a lot of these letters out to pissed off customers. ...
Why should I fix a brand new machine. You wouldn't fix a brand new car after you got it home. No it would be fix by the dealer under the 3 year warranty. JT should be a man and live up to his 3 year...
Just a warning to all you guys. Here is JT's response to my lawyers letter. I hope all you guy didn't prepay for your machines that are not even in the country yet.

Shopmaster mill turn is the biggest piece of junk. If you want to buy a new machine and then spend months and tons of $$$$ to fix it and make it maybe make a good part. JT DOES NOT STAND BEHIND HIS 3...
Yes I'm the guy that bought the "Cheapy special" Same machine as everybody else but I did my own electronics and steppers Ok is there a secret to adjusting the quill when the quill bore is out of...
Its a piece of junk JT DOES NOT stand behind his machines!!!!! I will NEVER deal with him again!!!!!!!!!
How much was your quill to the bore clearance? Why didn't you have JT fix this? It is an obvious a defect in materials and workmanship on their end.
Have you measure the bore diameter to the OD of the quill? My POS is out of round .002 and is .004 to .006 clearance to the quill which is unacceptable. According to JT this is not the cause of my...
Good old JT just selling the china junk with inspecting it.
1. The key inside the collect is to big to fit the slot of the collect. File the slot wider to fit the key.
2. Poor design on the...
Yes you won't be able to use the quick mode anymore. the fine feed is locked on and works just fine. It's just another ****ty JT design that we have to fix. JT is still redesigning because he still...
It's so new there's still paint inside the bore. Maybe there's so much clearance to the quill is why it won't drill a straight hole. 275306275308
Good luck with your new untested mill turn. Why do you think it was a total redesign? I will never buy from JT again.
Weld the inside bushing to the shaft. Then pin the bushing to the right. Make sure to tap the handle of the fine feed in towards the head stock to seat everything before you drill and pin it. 275302
I returned the parts. After 2 weeks of no reply from JT I sent the cracked part back. I was going to send everything the whole bridge and the quill but he doesn't want to fix it. I paid for a new...
you need the weld it and keep the fine tune always on and drill and pin the bushing to the right to keep it from coming out. This machine is another fine POS of JT's ripping people off. He will tell...
No JT stop responding to my emails and did answer the phone when I called. The bridge is heavy I say about 100 pounds. Its going to cost a pretty penny to send from the east coast to the west coast....
SHOPMASTER machines are warranted for THREE full years against defects in materials and workmanship. I have attached the shopmaster specs. My mill bore is out of round .002 and is .004 to .006 larger...
I filed a claim after JT didn't respond to my email after 5 days. After I filed the claim I got his attention in 45 minutes but by paypal and not by email to me. I gave him 4 options before I filed...
1. Quill bracket has been replaced by JT already along with the ball screw and support arm which was cracked. The ball screw was missing balls. Everything he sent back to me was used. He sent me the...
It might be the camera angle. When it pulls up will moves right and when theres a load it moves back and left.
I think I received 1 of the last of the 2014 machines It looked like it was put together with the left over parts laying around the plant in china. Paid JT 12/23/14 received it 1/5/15. Nothing but...
