A compromised web site is generally a hacker attack or perhaps your antivirus software being a bit precious.
well that didn't work.Quote:

Indeed, however that's not my antivirus popping up that warning, its Google itself.Quote:

admin @ marchantdice . com (without the spaces) worked last Friday !
Just a quick post to update everyone regarding the subject of this post.
Firstly I can confirm we have certainly not closed or gone "bust", the very opposite in fact we are busier than ever and constantly expanding our staff as well as our product range. We have some very exciting new advances on our CNC machines which will be released for sale in the near future after a 3 month intensive R&D phase. We are currently selling a huge number of machines per month (this includes delivery and training to our customers) over our whole machine product range as well as many many orders for related components via eBay as well as via our online shop. This has meant we have met a great number of people over the last couple of years and are confident we offer an excellent service. Of course like all fast growing companies we have experienced issues with the occasional order in the past which we try to solve as efficiently as possible.
All machines are built in our UK factory (where we also stock all related components off the shelf) and we run a very open door policy where anyone is welcome to visit any time. All our machines also come with a one year guarantee as well as one year free technical and software support.
The issue regarding the website we were not aware of however the website seems to be functioning correctly so we will contact Google to ensure they check things their end.
We are currently experiencing a phone outage hence the intermittent phone connection however we hope this will be resolved in the next couple of days.
The email address [email protected] has never been a valid email address therefore you would have received a bounce back. My email is [email protected] however suggest you email any enquiries to [email protected] to ensure they are picked up by everyone (that email account is forwarded to three people, including myself) to ensure all enquiries are dealt with promptly.
If anyone else has anything they wish to discuss albeit general or to do with an order then please email us as above and we will get back to you promptly.
Many thanks
James Marchant
Perhaps start with researching how to mount ballscrews properly:Quote:

http://www.mycncuk.com/attachment.ph...id=15605&stc=1I was wondering what happened to posts. To delete members opinions because they conflict with the business interests of the forum is corrupt and dishonest.
Look at this photo, it is my MD router - what you see is the Z axis linear bearings being held in by the profile end cap, which in turn is being held in by a small bracket. This bracket is my fix to stop the linear bearing dropping out !
Defend that !
I have a piece of poor design from MD, who were absolutely uninterested when the BoB they supplied went faulty (a BoB now obsolete and was already obsolete when I bought it from them).
It is the duty of the forum to allow honest criticism with evidence and if the forum has its integrity compromised it is valueless.
Maybe you are a lucky one cropwell. there are plenty of others including me who have been ripped off. I will never deal with Marchant Dice (new name Bionica Systems) again. I advise others to do the same.Quote:

It is interesting to look at Marchant Dice and Bionica Systems (and Bionica Group) on the Companies House records. To me the timelines paint an interesting picture.

looking for details of Bionica systems on Duedil turns up an MD James Marchant aged 33 so sounds like the next generation has been put in the chair.
They seem to be concentrating on machines , rather than components but the trustpilot reviews are enlightening.
