Hi Everybody, I have several items of equipment for sale. I just realized once I started typing that I don't have pictures of any of it, so I will rectify that in a post later this evening, but I at least wanted to get the general post out first. Everything is local pickup (San Dimas, CA) only.
All equipment is in great working order, unless otherwise noted. 1. Mounted Lot-O-Tumbler. This is mounted on a cinderblock and a house anchor. Heavy! Works fine, I just didn't like it. $60. Sold to @shotgunner ! 2. (New) Covington 16 inch vibrating lap, with 3 new pans and all of the other accessories. I bought a new Covington vibrating lap in January, put maybe 10 hours of use on it. It also has 2 (maybe 3, I can't remember) totally untouched pans to go with it, along with the rubber tubing shock supports, etc. (So, this means it has a total of either 3 or 4 pans, with only one of the pans having any use on it.) I've also got a bunch of lead weights for it. Perfect working condition, and effectively brand new. This is about $780 worth of equipment retail. I'm asking $500 for everything. Claimed by paulshiroma! 3. Old style vibrating lap. This one has a working motor, but needs new rubber balls for the supports. I think it's a 16 or 18". Comes with 2 pans. $100 Claimed by paulshiromaI'll get pictures up later. (Oops, never remembered to do this!) Jeff

I'm interested in the old vibrating lap, but would like to know what is needed (rubber balls?) to get it fully functional. Sorry...this type of device is new to me, so I'm not familiar with all the components. I'm assuming the motor is the primary, and most important element.

Like Super Balls, probably find them at Toys R Us.
Notice he said local pick up only?

So, the "rubber balls" are used as the mounts for the pan. As near as I can tell, they are vibration dampers/shocks. I think a few 1.5 inch (approximately) super bouncy balls will serve as a replacement for the original.

I'll get pictures up later. Not a buyer as the drive to pick up would be a bit ridiculous, but those pictures may help.

I have the Loto!
Sadly I didnt get to meet Jeff! Planning to just go visit soon.
Thanks Jeff!
Oddly, i am mystified at this machine. Its a cludge of stuff, glued in weights on cooling fans, glued on wood dowl as a fulcrum for vibrations, flexible sheet metal frame.... toilet plunger for a tank....
Pretty red powder coat. Wierd. Imho, retail is overpriced for what it is, and underpriced for what it DOES! And this was a good deal.
Thanks again Jeff!

Isn't San Dimas where all of the vampires are? I'm sure that is a move reference. Seems to me bill and Ted's excellent adventure was there too. On the other side of the freeway from Jeff is a cool place. Puddingstone lake. To my knowledge there isn't any actual puddingstone there, although could be I suppose. What's cool about pudding stone aside from childhood memories of catching bluegill, is the shear volume of skunks in the natural area surrounding the lake. It's not rare to go for an evening hike and have 10+ skunks in your view. Now, is someone going to buy the rest of his equipment? He is a good dude and prices are fair!
