Corona Mill's are Here

Here it is the Wonderful, awesome, fantabulous Corona Mill.
We have a limited number, selling at a lower price than many around, just a low $59 will get one of these little wonders.
I’ll have them in the store some time tomorrow.

I not notice there isn't a top cover included for that corona mill and I did find when I left the cover off stuff went everywhere and made a mess :angry-banghead: So I put the top cover back in and everything just falls down :handgestures-thumbupleft: Now it would be easy to make a cover from a coffee can just need to find one the right size :handgestures-thumbupleft:

In the morning I'll take a pic of the cover on mine so it gives a good idea of it's shape etc.

We aren’t all muscle men like you Bryan, some of us might just slowly grind up the grain rather than going flat our :laughing-rolling:

You youngens are always full of testosterone and energy :laughing-rolling:

CC s might be cheaper mate but only if you can resist eating them and getting them into the wash.

No point counting 3 bags as part of the wash if you ate 2 of the bags lol

I have a version of this called a "Beatrice" that is close to 100 years old by the serial number, These units obviously will last a very long time, but if your going to hang a drill/motor off of it, I strongly recommend lubricating the apropriate bit (end of the shaft at the grinding end) with some butter or lard and paying attention to sideways loading to prevent premature wear.

Mmm mexican flavoured Cfw :))
