Posted Sat Jul 19, 2008, 4:19pm Subject: For Sale Nearly new Reg Pistons (bases)
I have a smaller diameter (Olympia Cremina) machine, so I would like to sell these bases. A stainless 58mm flat, and a beautiful 51mm brass "CFlat." Not sure how much new ones are these days, and it wouldn't be fair to Reg to post such prices. I'd like $20 for the 58mm, and $30 for the brass. Both weigh less than a lb, so shipping on either would be around $5. Check is fine. Feel free to respond here or PM me at

Hi Rob,
If the 58 mm is a good fit for my LM ridge less basket I want it. The ID of my basket is 58.9 mm. The cheap cast aluminum thing which I am now using is 58 mm and is loose.

hey Phil... I had LM's and Synesso 58 doubles and triples...it was a perfect fit...a bit tight with the single OEM QuickMill basket, though. It was only lightly used...maybe 10-15 times. Your check is fine. Send me your zip, I'll check shipping...I'll weigh the 58 base...then post the actual weight...with bubble wrap around it and a tiny box it might be 1.5 lbs...be right back.

Good news...with bubble wrap it's 10.75oz, and it will of course fit in a 1lb USPS envelope, assuming it's OK to ship metal. If not, I can find a tiny box, and it might be a buck more. I think the charge is something like $5.10? I'll PM you my address if you want to send a check. Figure $25, and I'll send it Monday. As I mentioned, it fit my LM's (from Chris Coffee) perfectly, as well as the Synesso basket....the Synesso triple is, IMHO a better basket for nude pours than the LM...YMMV. Jon Rosenthal was kind enough to score a boatload of Synesso doubles and triples for CG members a few years ago. MY PF was the modified Rancillio from Chris.
