Centrifugal casting setup

Its still there for me. Interesting enough I searched “casting” in fb marketplace. Another one show up at $800!
 
This is twice now that you have posted something that shows up unavailable to me????
 
FB links seem to have problems. Here’s the full title of the ad. If you search for it should show up Centrifuge casting machine - needs repair - barrel + crucibles
 
I picked this up and have opened it up and am wrapping my head around it. It appears to be a spring problem as it won’t catch to wind up and looks like over time when released the enertia has bent the front of the spring raising the contact points so it slips and won’t engage.
