Just won an auction for a Lortone 33B on eBay. No barrels, just the machine. Got it for $66 plus another $14 for shipping. I figured I would take a chance on it. Pics look like it’s in decent shape. We shall see

That is the go to machine for quite a few Tumblers and based on the post almost trouble free. Some people make their own barrels out of pvc pipe.

I just went and looked at the completed auction. The unit looks like it's in pretty good overall condition. I did see a slight bend in one of the sides, but looks like it's not too bad really and doesn't look like it would cause any issues. The paint makes it look like it was never used! Congrats!!

It didn’t come with barrels. I was gonna go cheap and get the $25 ones off Amazon for the HF tumbler but ultimately decided to get a couple Lortones. Found them for $34 each new.
Even though my improvements on the Leegol have it running fine from the reviews it’s just a matter of time before the motor goes bad. Glad I got that Lortone. It should make a nice addition to my Thumler A-R12
