I just talked to Sharon Jebb tonight and
they are going to do a lid gasket for
a American Vendor for $30 or so
and they wanted some input on this.
 Sharon said she would like to read this by
Friday or Saturday
 so let them know what you think. smile

 A Ya or Na  or are they crazy or what
so let them know.

I've only seen two or three American Vendors and wouldn't think it would be cost effective as a specific machine use. If it is similar to a V-23 gasket or any other gaskets, then maybe they could sell it by the foot for the buyer.

I would agree with Tom...
If there's a similarity with another gasket for another model, then I would say, yes. However, I think this model may have a unique gasket and this warrants the question. Reproduce or not?
Personally, I don't see these machines restored very often so I think the cost return may take a long time to recover...

I've seen 2 or 3 on ebay in the past several months, but that's about it.  I would agree, it's one of those where you may go your whole time collecting without seeing one.  Just as soon as you have the opportunity to get one, you will need a gasket and it would be great to have one available.  If it wasn't too expensive to reproduce, then go for it...if it has a high initial cost and is unique, then it may not be the best plan unless you just want to have some out there to have a complete inventory.  My thoughts.

Now I know I will get a call on this when sharon reads this.
I think they need to turn their attention to doing La Crosse
parts  biggrin

  And you may be right Chedki the Quikold  gasket
may do well.

I'd second the quickcold gasket before this other one... seems alot more of the quickcolds pop up than the atlas.

I just got off the phone with Sharon, and she has said for some one to go ahead
and send one of those Quikold  gaskets to her and they will see what they can do, Also if there are two different style let them know which one  you want.

 Also they are taking preorders for Vendo 56's & 63's main door gaskets.
