I started with a popsicle stick, moved on to the ryedale ace bought at auction here. The next step was to trade the ace in for the rydale sniper. Sold enough Cu to pay for a scan coin 303, because of the great advice I got here at realcent about cleaning out the junk before I sort. Next I traded some junk silver and a couple of SAE for my apprentice and sold my sniper for more then I paid for it. I love the ability to double sort and getting Pm's that not one zinc was found in my last shipment to a customer when he rerun for a copper verification. Still at the same time building up my hoard and loving the fact that if I need an answer about something it's freely given around here. The biggest plus for me is that it"s just plain fun and I get a lot of from a lot of you. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I struggled with should I buy a Ryedale or not, and how can I justify this purchase besides the fact that it would be really cool. Doing the math, makes it real easy to jusify the purchase. It takes me longer to unwrap the wrappers than it does the Ryedale to sort them. You will have to get and have continued access to large volumes of pennies, and with that the machine will pay itself off in no time. So far I sort $200 at a time.

ahh just simply because I'm just plain lazy most of the time when I come home for a week, the faster I can sort them the better. You would think for someone who only works 5 1/2 months out of the year I could tear up some pennies I'm seriously slacking and need a big kick in the rear to get me moving I guess.
