Title: Rack for vendo 44
Post by: kahonwes on August 08, 2006, 09:58:44 pm
From the pics I was sent from the Soda Jerk Works, I made a rack for my Vendo 44 which works quite well.  I'm going to get some more 24ft steel rods in a week or so and find my mini rod bender and make a much better rack for my machine.  I'd like to make it as nice as possible, I dont like things looking like crap, even though this one is still rough..

So far this rack works flawlessly, bottles shoot right down and well its easy as pie to make...  Can someone let me know what they think... I think its not bad for the first try

k - laters

Outstanding!! To build the alpha from a picture and have it work first time is always cool!! Final fit/finish are downhill :-)

I welded it up piece by piece inside the tub while it was lying on its side, that was all the rod I had left, the rest I got is to thick...

Anyone need a Vendo 44 Rack lol

k - at least I can use my machine now
