As I didn't get the nice Ilco Minute machine I'll see if I can get this machine. Think it is a Curtis 2H . Only 25 miles away.

If that was near me I would only post after I bought it. :smile:
I think that will be a great deal for someone. Maybe worth a buy and then resell it in several offers on the "bay".

Thanks for the heads up and good luck with whatever you do....

I stick to my guns and only bid what i feel it is worth to me. i have a crap load of blanks now and if i were to get it i would only resell it. let the chips fall where they may.

i inspected the key machine today and the carriage shaft is rusted to the housing. it needs a good cleaning. the cutter is fairly new as it passed the 'thumbnail' test with flying colors. i've had other key machines in worse condition and brought them back to very good working condition. just a matter of waiting now.
