Has anyone tried any of their products? They have some very interesting and useful products especially their ballast spreaders for both 2 and 3 rail track as well as their ballast gluing machine. They are also on e bay as well as direct sales. Bachman is going to be their US distributor. I have seen their magnetic gluing clamps in the Micro Mart flyer .
I started getting their ads on FB about 3 days ago. They appear to be a UK operation, so I suspect the shipping/exchange rate will be high. I was not impressed with the ballast/glue spreader video. Too much ballast left in the ties…

They are based in Turkey. I was charged $17.00 postage on a $220.00 order but received $40.00 worth of free merchandise on a promotion that ended on 1/03/2016. On e bay they offer free shipping on an order over $70.00.
I just checked out their website and yes they do have a variety of potentially very interesting products, quite apart from the ballast spreader.

If they are going to have US distribution from a powerhouse like Bachmann this could get interesting.

The ballast spready looks cool, but I still think the traditional way, or the slightly modified form used by Cody, is faster and less messier. I tried one of those Miller ballast spreader things years ago and it was pretty much useless, these look a bit more workable but I see that same thing happening - a grain of ballast gets stuck in the moving flap and it won’t go all the way closed.
The magnetic right angle clamps look VERY useful, but ouch on the price.
