    Default Craigslist Score!

    I try to peruse through craigslist occasionally with a few choice search words and yesterday happened upon a personal glass studio up for sale as a lot. After lookng at the pictures a bit I realized I was going on a trip.
    I arrived to see everything was just as advertised.

    One barely used PM2D (This thing is barely discolored from heat at all...I`m guessing less than 20 or 30 hours on it. Manufacturing date is 2001 I believe.)

    One Aim 9169 digital, an old one at that with a little kiln brick damage but not much

    One nortel major minor, with a broken cleaning wire in one of the minor ports.

    Random tools and small lot of misc. size glass tube and rod.

    Two victor regulators and one fischer look alike propane reg.

    One pair of sports goggles w/split frame

    One pair of nice dydimiums

    One Full K tank

    One full propane 5gal

    All in all it was a good day!

    Now I just need to decide what to keep......
    I may put this PM2D up for sale along with a BRAND NEW phantom w/foot pedal. Just need to decide which burner of my three to keep...(50mm, Bethy, and Phantom)
    Oh well just thought I`d share since the PM2D really made my day!Click image for larger version.

    Nice find! That pm2d is a beauty.

    If you don't mind me asking, what price did you get the package for?

    Might have you beat, lol, picked up an Invacare Plat 10 with 460 hours on it for $50, and the week after got a $75 paragon kiln that was old but hardly used. Congrats to the OP, gotta love those craigslist deals!

    The kiln is the reason I found the ad. I thought it was a 99lsd until I got there......it is super old too. The tag says Oregon not Nevada for the location of the Factory.
    Stoked! The Pm2d is amazing too.....and the goggles. I never would have bought those new.

    What are you asking for the new Phantom? I wouldn't need the foot pedal.
