GE loved so2 because Frigidaire created F12 or R12.
I had 2 lbs of so2 let loose last year. It's impossible to be in the room with it. As it spread, it ran me out of the room and eventually upstairs. As it was forcing my retreat, it irritated my eyes and nose. We have lots of moisture...
With some work you can charge it with 134a.
Please google monitor top forum and look there. A member by the name of coldspaces can direct you. He's also here, but logs in less often.
Those are owned by another member here. You will be buying a nice pair and not a pair that has been left in a moldy basement. I would jump at those if I were local.
Ralph,
There are many versions of the cross bar. Each has a different size hole in the center. They make threaded bushings that screw into a larger hole that has a smaller threaded hole in the center.
I would get one of those bars, then a bushing, a piece of threaded rod and a...
What Kenny said..
I got in an argument on the phone with a friend of mine today. He told me that if someone called him with a dozen monitor tops he would tell them to scrap them, since he has one. I replied that he better not need parts with that attitude. I told him that someone had to save...
Jesse,
I sympathize with your predicament. One of my grandmothers was like that. I can't tell you how many rotted cords she snipped trying to protect me from getting shocked.
You might just have to wait until you have your own place. All of this old stuff is old and can be a bit...
Duke,
What you're dealing with are collectors that wish to keep or see the right people adopt their machines. I have more monitor top refrigerators than I will ever use. I would be fine with selling some to reasonable people. I flatly refuse to sell off things to people that wish to have...
Duke,
No one has been unkind to anyone here. Kenny is a lot like me, we have more stuff than we will ever get to. I save things because I want them to be saved. I seldom expect appliances to work properly. I certainly wouldn't ever guarantee anything in my garage to be without issue.

Jesse,
No one has been negative towards you. We all have read your numerous posts about the desire to have a Unimatic. I will admit that I got a chuckle out of your desire to have a control tower pair.
I am sure that something will come up in time. The offer from Bob was a good...
They were little men, that's why it took five. Think of college aged jocks. There were two at the top and three at the bottom. I am not a strong person, but I can generally look at someone and tell if they can handle the situation.
Kenny,
Here it was in the basement. It took five men to pull it up the stairs. They were all young men who worked out a lot, but never really lifted much.
I am just saying that it's not that hard to move. I bought it to rescue it, not to long-term own it.
Yes Steve, it would likely go across the street and take out a parked car.
I rescued that out of a house being demolished. The moving bill, to get it out of the basement, was worse than the purchase.
It's on two furniture dollies and my driveway is sloped downhill. It will go down to the street with one good push!
