where to buy a Crane claw kit?
« on: February 12, 2013, 07:16:27 am »
Hi everyone,

I am looking to buy a complete crane claw kit, machinery, motor and a large claw - and was wondering if anyone would have any recommendations as to where to find this ?
I have to admit that I am new to this, and not being in the business and only wishing to purchase a single crane claw kit means that some suppliers are not interested in talking to me.  Which, after all, is fair enough. I am also based in London, UK but am more than happy to purchase a working kit from anywhere in the world.


Many thanks,
Celia

Welcome aboard, Celia.

I'm not too familiar with claw machines, but you may find it easier -- and more cost effective -- to buy a working crane machine as a starting point.

At a quick glance, Ebay.co.uk has several listings including this one and this one, both with a Buy-It-Now around 400 pounds.

Another place to check is on KLOV's Trading: All Other Machines - For Sale or post a request in Trading: All Other Machines - Wanted.
