Keene 151 Drywasher Question

[grumpy]

Evening friends
I have ask and emailed everyone i could think of with a drywasher question and all seem to busy or dont know.
The Keene 151 drywasher in my catalog is a vibrastatic concentrator ? whatever that means it has like hot air induction? My question is are all 151 Keene drywashers the same as in im looking at an older one would it still be the same. THe budget says i can get older one not new one if ya know what i mean.
Thanks for any help and info.

Hiwdy Grumpy... A few years ago I bought an older 151. Basically it was the same as a newer one, I bought it from a friend who no longer was able to get out and use it. He gave me a good deal ($200) and then after several more years, I was no longer able to go out and use it, so I sold it. ($300)... It worked well over the years. js.

Thanks;
I guess it depends on the price in question; seems that the model has had some serious improbements over the years and newer is supposed to be better but im sure that would equate into how much better for how much more money.
Thanks for the help

Gosh Grumpy... I do not know about the improvements. I was happy with my older model.

Well i think personally it would be best to get a honda over a briggs but otherwise it all looks like decorations to me. Both machines look like the same except for the color and such. BUT !! I just personally know enough to be dangerious so that is where Im at.
Thanks for all

PS. I do already have a vac and think it is probally the most inovative tool yet. and i dont really know what that means either

Grumpy... some people like fords others chevrolets... both are cars... Both are good... older and newer.
just my thoughts... but any Keene 151 is a pretty good "production" machine for the more serious.
Thanks... I also know just anough to be dangerous too...
