Seeing that pic of the Ajax Hot Nut vending machine makes me wonder...Is there a Vending machine/gumball/peanut reference guide that is still in print? Seems like I remember one from about 25+ years ago but I wonder if there is another. Thanks, Terry

Anyone know where you can get a direct replacement heater coil for these? Not sure if that is correct terminology. I know I can make something but would rather have it more original. Thanks Seth

Hello Seth

That's what I also heard Dave. The vendor I bought it from said there was asbestos used in them so he always removes them. I will let you know if I find a safe replacement.

What good is a hot nut machine without a heater?

It also says "fresh" so I guess the whole thing is a lie.

Good topic... would be great to find a replacement heater... from what I recall they where asbestos and just some wrapped wires around the asbestos material that fastened to the bottom of each chamber.. they where super brittle when I removed mine.. wonder if a light bulb would generate enough heat to transfer through?

I was thinking of a light bulb also but then I started thinking heat tape. Not sure if they make real short pieces. I don't have the machine yet to look at the configuration so I don't even know if it's a viable option. I also wonder if it would be enough heat? I'm not sure how hot that stuff gets.

I have wire that is used on walk in freezer doors that get pretty warm to keep the door from freezing shut. If some one can tell me how long the heater wire is I can cut lengths of it and see how long it holds up and if it would be warm enough.
