I was just reading through this thread And have taken a sudden interest in the Metal Typer machines after discovering one at a local historical museum and becoming enamored with it.
There's a couple unit currently for sale on ebay, but it seems when they've come up in the past few years they were significantly less than the current offerings.
Can anybody share a general price range of what serviceable machines go for in private sales and whether there are any available?
While I know a reasonable amount about the Metal Typer mechanics, I do
not know what they sell for these days. I have two machines that I
bought many years ago, neither of which is for sale...
Why not ask Crow River? They sell parts and machines - at least you
would know the game is in good condition if you got it from them.

Does anyone know how much they weigh. I need to know the weight of the top part and the weight of the heavy metal bottom part. Also do you know the height of pieces when
separated. Thank you so much for any help.
I can get the blanks. First I need a machine. If you know where to find one please let me know.
Brian Herrmann— Are you still in the market for a machine? I have one in North Carolina. I'm open to selling it.Christopher I sent you an email.
Thanks, Christopher

metal and the others are wood.
I may have a flyer at my shop with that info. I've emailed you the
service manual for these machines in the meantime.
