Just wanted to take a moment to let everyone know what a class act one of the sponsors happens to be. I am talking about Jon from STAVEPRESS. By now everyone is aware of the great product Jon is churning out in that StavePress of his, but what you may not know is that the man is ready to back up his product with a personal service that is rare to find in this day and age.
Here's my story:
I bought a Stavepress in January of 2011 and had a problem with the upper plate inside the vice coming off the little ball joint. I e-mailed Jon (I knew I was out of the 1 year warranty) and asked if he made a replacement part I could buy. Jon responded immediately and not only fixed the issue but did it as if I was still in warranty! Honestly, I couldn't believe it. It was so far above and beyond what he had to do, especially given that I was willing to PAY for the fix, that I had to write this and try to let everyone on the forums know what a class act Jon is and by extension StavePress.
Now I don't mean to sound like a pushy marketing goober, but I am just so ecstatic at the way this was handled that I felt it was the least I could do to get the word out there and let everyone know about what a great business the StavePress Company is along with the extraordinary person running it.
