FS: Hinmaton alignment table

[Whit Johnson]

Selling my Hinmaton / Loco Machine FATMO alignment table that I got in 2016. It can be broken down into 3 pieces so is easier to transport and ship than some but still weighs a few hundred pounds (can't remember exactly how much). It has leveling feet and can be bolted to the ground. Comes with all you see in the photos that were provided with the table (BB post that fits any width shell, seat tube pry bar, headtube bar and cones, rear axle spacing gauge). Size is 46.5" x 28" and diagonally about 50". The holes make it very adaptable to different sized frames. I use a raised v-block to check fork alignment but alignment is done off the table. I'm located in the Sacramento area and am willing to ship but would rather not.  

I paid $3200 (plus $500 shipping). I would like to get $2200 but will take offers. Not many of these were made and not many full frame alignment tables around that weigh this little! 

Thanks,
Whit

This is a nice table.  The holes keep it from weighing a ton.  I remember seeing them displayed at the Philly Bike Show.  My laser cut and etched made in Ukraine fixture will fit nicely on top of it. When I saw it the price was more than $4,000.  This is an excellent chance to get an essential tool at a reasonable price if you don't already have one.

Whit, sorry to hear about Meriwether shutting down, you were one of the good ones.

Anyone buying this table can bask in the reflected glory, or at least know it's been used to make some nice frames.

Good luck with whatever you take on next.

Do you know about other FB forums where you can announce that it's for sale?

Anyone else here have more to add?

Different forums have different rules for selling, like I think on Bike Forums you have to be a paying member, but it's not expensive.

CFF (customframeforum) seems to be the most active, definitely check it out if you haven't.
