Thanks for all the comments and compliments guys... Appreciate everyone help and advice... can't wait to get the bezel, Rod... I hope to finish this one this weekend... I think when it's done, it's going to be too nice to run...  Chris |

Is the vending stack in that machine a reproduction? If so what did it run and will it vend both bottles and cans? Thanks!  Tim |

Tim,
it's a repro that I got from Funtronics, made completely of stainless steel. I've gone over this thing carefully, and it's very high quality, both in construction, welding, fit and operation..... just lubricate the moving parts with white lithium and it vends cans right out of the box, and will vend the old style small bottles with the addition of the included clear vinyl sleeves... I did try vending the newer 8 oz bottles which as you know are smaller in diameter than the old ones... it seemed to handle them ok, but did give a double vend every so often... I think that issue could be resolved by installing a split piece of hose over top of the sleeves to make the diameter of the shafts even wider, but I haven't tried that yet... I'm still trying to decide how we are going to use the machine when I'm finished, we might just plug it in every once in a while, as we're using the V63 for daily use...I honestly don't remember exactly what I paid for it, but around $800 seems right... it was the last one they had in stock, but that was before Christmas....
Chris
