New Tire Machine Coming
The No-Mar works but it has become more work then I want to mess with any more so it will be up for sale. I have about $1200.00 invested into the No-Mar & will take $500 just to move it out.
HERE IS THE WEAVER that I am getting. I should be set up to resume doing tires in about a month.

Re: New Tire Machine Coming
Steve, changing as many tires as you do, I can't blame you. That looks like a great machine.
It is always a wrestling match to do the tires with a manual machine like the No-Mar or HF and when you reach a mature age like Steve, it gets even harder

Re: New Tire Machine Coming
The No-Mar is sold & going to a good home down Houston way. I'm sure it will get good usage there.
I should be picking my new one up next week in Ft Worth.

Re: New Tire Machine Coming
I went to pickup my Tire Changer yesterday. I was able to buy it from the same warehouse as Weaver buys from so I got a big discount over the normal price. I also bought a roll around low profile stand from a Member here so I can move the machine in & out of a storage closet in my Garage. Thanks David (dpancerz) the stand works great . I did have to use some 1 1/2 inch square tubing under the machine to raise it up in the stand so the pedals would work. I still need to bolt the machine to the stand. The wider foot print in the front because of the wheel being on the sides of the machine make it seam more stable.
This is very nice machine & I can not wait to do a few tires. I'm still waiting on my Marc Parns balancer as Marc is on Vacation till next Friday. Here are a few Pics on the stand & the machine.
Rear wheels
Front wheels, Note all wheels will lock to keep from rolling.

How many times do you think you will hit your head on that top horizontal piece?
I am betting once will be enough.

J/K!! Congrats on the new toy. Return of capital shouldn't take long, especially if you got a discounted price. Good luck.

I do want to see it in action sometime, as I'm thinking it would be even easier than a No-Mar tire changer.
