Buy a couple of Home Depot buckets to unwrap them into. Use a razor to open them. Then just scoop them into the machine. The machine can go through a bucket full of pennies in about 10 minutes. And I always run them through twice.
I'd sell mine for $300 + shipping.. and I think I have half a bottle of the oil left that I'll include. The video doesn't tell you this, but I found that a drop of oil on the slide kept it from jamming up.

Thanks for the tip.. $300 is heavy for a $500 retail machine, I think, but it sounds like it'd be worth it to you to just keep it if I were to offer less.. and I understand that
Does the maker give any kind of a warranty on a new one, do you know?
While it's busy gathering dust, I don't imagine that you would send it to me and let me use it and split up the profits with you ... ??
