I'm corresponding with someone who is selling a Boss, but they don't know if it is Cast Iron or Aluminum. The person has no idea of judging weight. It was purchased from Tippmann in 2003. Is there any other marking, etc that will guarantee its Cast Iron (which I want)? Is there something different on the Model between the Cast Iron vs Aluminum?
Much Thanks, TZHunter
Very simple. A magnet will stick to the iron, and not aluminum.

The auction was nearby in central PA. I just happened to see the listing. The guy was an old hobbyist who used to own a scrap yard. He was into a bit of everything.

So what did the machine sell for? Did you get it?
It went for $625.00. It was a newer aluminum frame machine in really nice shape. I had a budget of 400, so no, I did not get it. The old fella had a lot of really cool stuff. A Champion lock-stitch machine went for nearly 2000 fully restored. A luberto #9 with a motor drive and bench went for $800 with no sign of the winning bidder backing down. BIG older machines went dirt cheap, but there were not many bargains to be had that day.

There is a Boss coming up at auction locally on Wednesday. Anything in particular that I should be looking at in a used machine? I have never seen one up close and personal, so any help would be appreciated.
