Why you do so for us, ask your senior leadship, for they know what happened before. If you want to deal it, come to my company to solve it, and I also have something to be handled with you. You should know the address of my company. In a word, any problems, come to me. Do not trouble my clients. Thank you

Someone's cage has been rattled I think...

I'm curious about the issue with the photos though- piles of Castle motors in boxes doesn't prove anything on it's own- they could have been taken anywhere, at any time. I'm just curious about the line from Nick that Sirius was producing Castles motors for a while, hence the Castle motors allegedly in the Sirius warehouse...

It totally says creations on the white wire. I like this pic the best though. A good old "Motor repalar lit" to fix it

I know Patrick is going to hate this but I hope their rebuild kits fit my 1518, 1520 and 1717. What other choice do I have if I want to keep my motors going??? I am sure they wouldn't be as good as the original (magnet strength and balancing are my main concerns) but since Castle doesn't make repair kits for them then my options are limited. I don't want to support a company that is ripping off Castle but I don't want to bin my Castle motors neither. I must have got a bit of sand in one of my 1518 motors and the rotor wrappings are in pretty poor state. I don't want to run it like this in fear of totally destroying the motor. Maybe a Sirus kit will get it humming again....... Sorry Patrick.

Never mind -- I see he posted on MSUK.

Unfortunately I can't log in on MSUK -- keep making usernames, and it will never accept my passwords or let me log in.

/sigh

I've shot Nick a PM on MSUK and hopefully he'll look into it, would be nice to have both sides of the story over at that forum..
