I scored on this old vending machine this week. It costed me zero dollars and I have two of each electrical components so if anything goes wrong I can replace it. In the top row I will put candy bars for my grandkids, and the two bottom rows I am going to put treats for Jake and his will be free vend. I am sure it won't take him long to know what I am doing when I start pushing the buttons. The bottom box has plenty of storage and will have a lock when I am done.

I bet you wonder why I put this in the reloading forum.

Who's coming over for snacks?

dayum Jim, that's a lot of powder!

I'm thinking you could put primers in the bottom row, make them non-dispenseable.

Just need peanuts, chips, cigars for the top row and another vending machine for BEER!!

You should put boxes of loaded ammo in the slots and make it a pay as you go machine. That way you can make it a "piggy" bank to save a bit of money and dispense ammo while you are saving.

To heck with the snacks...I'll be over shortly to restock my powder supply.
Neat idea!

I am curious though...what's in the large steel 8lb keg with the tiny label? Mil-Surp?

 

[JLA]

put little packs of reloads in the vending slots and charge your friends for ammo..

 

[hstout1143]

Nice score Jim.

 

[ejkoechling]

more powder than some gun shops.lol

 

[RustyFN]

That is really cool. I like it.

 

[V509]

It is kind of plain....need some shooting related stickers to fancy it up??

More powder and primers than they had at Cabelas last Monday.

I got the second vending maching. They both work and they each have lights. I will have them completely bolted together this week and am putting in new cords/plugs. They make great ammo storage, and as you can see by the last pic, the grandkids have cleaned me out. That's what grandpa's are for.

By the way guys and gals. As you can see I am running a bit low on bullets, primers, and powder. Could someone help a brother out and send me some components this way. Poor Highboy is getting low and I just don't know what to do. Please, come on somebody, I need some more .44 mag. Oh, and send me a bunch, please.

Oh,,, those dishes. Those aren't mine. I wonder how those dishes got there.

 

[Country101]

I'm sure it was staged by Jake......

No, because he would have had them thrown all over the place and busted up. Actually, all of my neighbors bring us their clothing, furniture, appliances, and just about anything they are getting rid of and we send them over to our daughters and have a killer yard sale every year. Those are really nice dishes and will seel quick. The stuff our neighbors bring us comes from multiple families and it's all really nice. In fact, there is so much clothing in nice condition that our grandkids are pretty well outfitted. It's a real blessing. Now if they would donate their used firearms.

Dude. Jim.. That's probably the most genious camoflauging system for ammunition in the world. If the libs stormed your house in search of guns and ammo to confiscate all they'll find is vending machines full of candy for the kiddos. . Little to their knowing that they are filled with ammo and reloading components. Now to make a couple into a gun safe..

 

[time2shoot]

What no candles for jake?

This is what I am going to tape to the bottom doors of each vending machine.

Sewing Supplies:

Small Needles, 10
Large Needles, 20
Thread Colors, 3 of all
Yarn Colors, 3 of all
Doll Dresses, Hobby store cutouts, 3 sets
Doll Shoes, 3 pair small, 3 pair large
Etc, etc, etc.


So if someone breaks in they will think they are my wife's hobby cabinets and they will show no interest. The vending machines are going to be bolted all together 4-way and with the lead in the bottom they will be ging no where.
