Ooookay so managed to undo screws (dads are great!) and I have to say the way it spins now is a world away from before, it previously felt scratchy and stiff but now spins freely, won't get a chance to try till tues but reckon that's done the trick, thanks gaston I'm a happy girl :) was dreading having to send away!
I'm glad you got it resolved. they could have been adjusted by the inertia itself. Don't over torque non of the little screws. Enjoy the machine :)Quote:

i meen yes FK does good equipment but it cant be flawless on everything.anyway thats what everyone and gaston wants to hear.thats how everyone moves up and improves his work.Gaston dont get me wrong bro,im not saying it in a bad way,but if i read that it it lines better than a sidewinder , softshades better than a spectra halo with give , or packs color better from i dont know what i will throw away all of my machines and get one direct halo.i dont want an overall review because i doubt you let out to the market a bad or a not noticible machine.of course its gonna be good.but how would it be rated in the artists hands on different tasks?thats what im asking for and i think so do you and correct me if im wrong.
Why don't you buy one or trade for one & try one out for yourself? They are good machines, I couldn't say that they line better than a Sidewinder. The sidewinder has something that no other rotary can come close to.Quote:

Hey Panos. here is some feedback for you.Quote:

This is why I will never advertise our product as the best product out there because that's up to the artist to judge. All we can do is try to build the best machine possible to the best of our knowledge and experience.
What I can do tell you is that the Direkt is a machine with a very consistent performance. it does not have give and it has a built in module (HexDrive System) that protects the motor shaft from the load result of the off centered elliptical motion of the cam.
It uses robust stainless steel bearings, polished and anodized aircraft aluminum components and it's a machine that you can throw everything you want at it, from coloring, shading lining, to cartridge systems. Made in the USA and backed by our warrant
The machine is not flawless just like no other machine machine out there or anything that entails mechanics and technology.
However, we stand behind every machine we build and we'll remedy any issue that's related to manufacture and performance no questions asked.
If someone is offering you or selling you "a perfect machine" run as fast as you can as no such thing exists nor will exist.
The day that that happens, we'll be all of us builders out of business and I will be using that perfect machine myself.
Should you have any questions please let us know or email us.
Gaston
