As I'm checking out my Vendo 63, it appears that there is no cap catcher. Any bottle caps removed will just fall inside of the machine and I can't imagine that is correct.

Does anyone have a picture that they could post of the inside so that I could see what the original looks like? I'm thinking that it should be fairly easy to have a friend from a metal shop build me one.

Thanks in advance.

Best way I've found to sort out missing parts is to check on-line auction pics of other machines and with any luck somebody will have a pic that helps.

Quite possible that one of the suppliers listed can help you as well. A new fab while functional will not be correct/vintage (if this is an issue). I used a charcoal starter fluid can with the top cut off until I found the correct cap catcher.

Dale,

As Creighton has suggested, contact any of the Parts Suppliers listed in the Parts Suppliers Section to see if they have a V-63 cap catcher.  Seems to me that I thought one of them has a reproduction available.

I also forgot to state that there's a V-63 up for auction and you could contact the seller to see if you could get a digital photo of the cap catcher...
Here's the link:

My six cents,
