I purchased a cap catcher for my Ideal 55. The mounting holes lined up- and the bottle opener fits through the window.

My question- the top of the cap catcher sits about 1/2" above the chrome trim plate. All the pictures I have seen of other 55's have a gap between the chrome and the top of the catcher.

I am thinking I purchased a cap catcher off of a Glasco slider?

Can't say for sure it's from a Glasco, but yes, the cap catcher should not be extending above the top of the machine

Can you post a picture?

The Glasco has a flat portion in bottom of the hole where the bottle opener is. The Ideal should be oval.

I had a Glasco catcher available and set it on an Ideal. The top went about a 1/4 inch past the bottom of the trim. So it might be a Glasco.

You have a Glasco catcher. Maine T has some Ideal catchers for sale if interested.
