This machine was designed and built to last for decades and to seal tens of thousands of #10 cans. It was originally in a Morman canning center, and was designed and built after the Original Rooney Semiautomatic Sealers. Only around 100 machines were ever built! If you want to do your own long-term food storage, then this machine is for you. It's built like a tank! Comes with operating manual. I bought this from a seller out of Utah back in 2022, but have not used it since it's arrival, and it has been in storage the whole time.
If you want to see one just like it in action from the man who sold it to me, go to youtube and search for "The ULTIMATE Apocalypse Machine". It should be easy to find.
These machines are now very rare, and extremely difficult to find for sale. If you're looking to preserve food for long-term storage (up to 30 year shelf), then sealing it in a #10 can is the only way to go.
Photos show the seamer machine on a heavy-duty moving caster which is NOT included in the sale.
Item is located on the northwest side of Chicago near O'Hare. If you're interested, you are welcome to stop by and check it out.
