Hi Guys,
I finally got back with the local guys (well local to me, they're in Sullivan) who do the cryo treating and got some pricing. Basically the cost is $9.75 per pound. They give an addtional 10% discount at each additional 10 pound increment. To give you an example just in case my fingers have become disconnected from my brain;
<10lbs $9.75/lb
<20lbs $8.78/lb
<30lbs $8.29/lb and so on
I'm planning to take my first load up late next week (Friday). I'm taking a set of lawnmower blades (audiophile blades of course), some razor blades, golf balls (I know it's illegal but my handicap is like 30 so it doesn't matter), some cables, power cords, and some tubes.
If you guys are interested, I'd be happy to include your stuff in with mine. If you can't make it out to my place this weekend maybe we could meet for lunch somewhere. I work (basically) at the intersection of Hwy 40 and Ladue Road.
If you are interested either drop me a PM or jsut respond to this post. I can email you my daytime phone number and we can work out somewhere to meet up.
Oh, for those worried about the vendor and process. These guys bought a cryo machine. This is one of the fully automated machines sort of like a big chest freezer. This definately isn't some guys with a big jug of liquid nitrogen in his garage. These guys are a full blown machine/manufacturing shop that produce parts for race motors.
Ace Manufacturing is the name of the company.
