Thanks Jim...I may need it for me and my son. LOL. I just got a text from him wanting to plug it in...I said "no, wait on me, I don't want you to get hurt." When actually, it was "I don't want you playing with it when I'm not there." LOL.
I called the Funtronics guy. Yea, man, he know's his stuff. He, like everyone else, didn't really know a lot about this unit. It wasn't made long.
I was hoping he could help me get some of the 1970 dark woodgrain heavy duty contact paper to go on the front. He said that he was out and it maybe awhile before he got any in. If anybody else knows of where I could order it, I'd appreciate it if you told me.
I want to start cleaning it up some. It has some dirt in the chute.
I wonder if leaving it runnig all time is a good thing.
Do you guys?? Does that wear out the compressor? Good/bad for it?
I want to put bottled water in it if I can....and a few diet cokes in bottles or cans. Do Coke companies give you a good deal if you buy a case?
Thanks

Welcome to SMC Mark!
Yes, please post pictures - we all like pictures!
I leave my machines running all the time.  The best thing to do is make sure it is full, that way you spend less on cooling (and know that a cold one is only a coin or two away).

Have you ever bought a soda from a machine not running? Yes - all the time!
