[QUOTE="nismo270r, post: 443721, member: 1658"] I had tossed the idea around before of hunting down one of those tinning machines after having visited C&D a few years back. I think they had a grand total of 3 of them when we took the tour. I can't remember off the top of my head how many tins Chris said their fastest person could do in a day, but I do remember the number being mind boggling. I think two were setup for the 2 oz tins and one setup for 8 oz tins. I was wanting to get it setup to stash away some bulks or tobacco that comes in bags like Esoterica for longer term aging. I like the idea of the tin to help keep light out and having a good seal, but I think it would be pretty cost prohibitive even to get one of the antique machines. With jars, you can keep light at bay with where they're stored, and it is nice to just pick up a jar and be able to see if anything funky is going on. Speaking of sealing jars, didn't they used to have some doohickey that worked with a vacuum sealer that would let you seal a regular mason jar lid? [/QUOTE]
