Well luckily the delivery driver did me a favour and reversed his lorry down my sloping driveway. He made me aware that they are not furnished with electric palette trucks as before as were used when I got a mill and bandsaw delivered from you. It appears that the company is not as good as previously used and I’m sure most people would prefer to pay an extra few pounds for you to cover the cost of using a delivery company with insurances and equipment to guarantee very expensive equipment is not left on the road with no way of moving it. My postman doesn’t , nor do Amazon., !!when specifying free delivery you expect it to be delivered not dumped in the road! Which I think will happen to purchases very soon judging by what my driver said..however having said all that the equipment is fantastic. Been disassembling it , to lighten it ready for moving and lifting. May need a bit of input from your tech dept. So only the delivery was a worry. Thanks for a GREAT MACINE! Alan Bramson It appears the
