Title: Stoner Jr. Dimensions
Post by: GreginNM on June 27, 2009, 09:05:50 pm
Hey all, looking to see if I can fit a Stoner machine in the back of our new vehicle (Ford Flex).  What are the dimensions (height without base), width, and most importantly the depth front to back where it sets onto the base (base not included).  Thanks for the help!

Is it a Jr. or a 120?  The 120 is taller and has the "Fresh Candy" embosement.  Both machines are six pull.

I went downstairs and measured the machines.  These measurements are close aproximations.

Both machines are 23" W

Both machines are 13.5" D.  From the tray to the back.  The body is 12" D, then the knobs and the tray stick out.  The tray adds 1".  The knobs were not longer than the tray.  Probably around  3/4."

The Jr. is 39.5" H

The 120 is 43.5" H.

The height is a close aproximate.  The machines come to a point at the top, so I added .5".

Thanks, Larry!  That gives me the dimensions that I need!  Not sure on exact model yet, I'll report when I have it at home and can get a good look at it.   :biggrin:

I have moved several machines with my Dodge Magnum--including a Stoner Jr., Stoner 180 and a National 7 pull cig machine.  You should have plenty of room in that Flex.  Plus you can always remove the base and the two pieces will fit with no problem!

Well, another one of those where you have an agreement with the seller that he is going to sell to you, and then when you get back up with him he has sold it to some other jackass!   :darn:  I had talked to him Friday night and he said no problem, it was mine.  I told him I'd call this weekend to arrange pickup (4 hour drive each way).  Busy Saturday, so called first thing Sunday, but his phone wouldn't accept incoming calls until 6pm for whatever reason.  In the mean time, he sold it to some clown because he didn't hear from me today.  HELLO, only been trying to call ALL day!  Even emailed this morning when I couldn't get through on the phone!  He feels real bad (so he says), especially since he's another Air Force guy and I rubbed it in that I was disappointed he broke our agreement (he didn't know what was wrong with his phone).   :veryangry:  The other clown already picked it up, so I'm totally out.   :veryangry:

By the way, it was a Stoner 4 pull pastry machine, Art Deco mirror, without base for $70!   :darn:   :veryangry:

 :darn: :darn: Yep, it has happened to me too! You have something and then you don't!!! You will find another one! Not sure I have seen one of those before. I have seen Jeff's 5 pull and the cookie machine, but not a 4 pull. Memories of the RC 35 you had locked up too!!! That buy backed out on you too!

Hang in there.

Greg -

That stinks, you'll find something better for cheaper down the road!  :biggrin:

In the Navy we use the term "Shipmate" to get the attention of or in reference to another sailor. When that sailor is a peice of crap or does something shady like your AF former seller, we call them 'Shipwrecks"!  :biggrin:

That sucks, because it was a pastry machine it was very rare, i have one and it took i long time to get, one just sold at auction for 900.00 this is why he sold to another person, he  got a better offer, he is an ass, a deal is a deal

Thanks for the encouragement, guys!  You are right, Jeff, that's why I was so excited when I found it!  I had fully planned to use your Moon Pie machine as a model and make one for my wife.  She is a Moon Pie nut and was actually excited about the idea!   (A rare reaction for an additional machine in the collection!)  I think our local "moneybag" collector snagged it out from under me...he buys, restores, then tries to get 3 times what they are worth on Craigslist.  Don't know for sure, but have a hunch.  Doesn't really collect, and not part of this group either.  Oh well, as others said, something better will come along.   :darn:
