Title: Replacement Paper Cups For Dispenser on Peanut Machine
Post by: Hollywood80 on December 27, 2009, 10:11:49 pm
I don't know if this is posted properly, but I am having a difficult time trying to find (on-line) the small cone shaped cups with a flattened end that fit in the dispenser on a nut machine.  It is an Ajax No. 25 dispenser.  Any tips would be greatly appreciated.  I have been all over the internet.

My friend looked for awhile and could not find any either.  Unfortunately, they might not exist anymore.  If you ever find any, email me.  I'll do the same for you.

Here are a couple of pictures of the paper cups. They are small.  I believe they only hold a couple of ounces at the most. Thanks

I've been looking as well, with no luck ... I have the Glass tube dispenser for my Challenger and no luck so far ...

I'm sure if we put all our resources together... we'll find something!

I know they are not exactly the same but would the cone-shaped ones that they use on the water coolers at golf courses work?  I suspect that you could get those at Sam's, Costco or restaurant supply wholesalers.  Gordon Food Service is a wholesaler in Michigan that has a lot of restaurant and food service paper products and they are open to the general public.  Just a thought.

Here is an online supplier of what I am talking about:

The cone ones are a differnet size and do not work.  They will work in the glass tube Dixie Vortex models, but the are a tight fit.

wonder if there is enough of a market to have them made up. But then i wouldn't know where to start looking for a supplier.

        Since you don't need them to hold water, why not unfold one of them and lay it flat to use as a pattern? Cut about a hundred of them out of a heavy bond paper and glue them together. That would sure keep the kids busy for a few days.  :biggrin:
