It was a pretty good Saturday for us. At yard sales and flea markets, and an antique shop, we turned up some loot.  Some nice Dino ad glass for a Tok 300, a Conoco map (free!), and a D-X ashtray.  Tara found this neat old Sinclair map. We really like the graphics of the car and kid with Dino. Something interesting about this map is the H-C sign. It's just a red disc with no green. The globes on the pumps are the same way. Weird...  And last but not least, some neat quart cans. Looks like one needs a lid! Wes

Barry,
I set it for a special request to fill & lid POPCORN cans. The guy had a case of NOS [never filled cans w/ lids]. Smaller dia. than a beer can. Instead of having to reset everything for each can, I have each set for 1 can size [dia. & hight.].
Machine is sold for sealing food in cans & have to be Tweaked for oil cans.
Machine was 1st patented in 1932 & are still being made today by the same company in Wisconsin.
Ebay addiction !
