Hey @anttn
Finding these machines should not be a problem how many do you want and are you looking for a manual or a motorize version?
Though these are heavy pieces of metal and shipping via post may cost a lot but let us take it one step at a time lets zero in on a model first.

I was just thinking about this as you are in India... What region are you in already ? One of the points in my article was that you can't find any, new or used, in Europe, and dozens of new ones in some parts of the world, mainly in India, Africa and South America...
Yes, that's what I thought, the taxes and shipping costs may indeed be more important than the price of the item, but it's good to find out first :)
In the end, I'm looking for one without a motor and that can be operated by hand... that way, even if there is a power cut, I'm independent ^^
Have a good Sunday dear !
Hello Dear @anttn
Would it be OK if we take this discussion to discord (sent you a request )
Hope you have a great Sunday Too :)
Hi dear !
I'll catch you soon on Discord :) Somehow it's no longer working on my computer...
Have a good day and see you soon !
Dear @anttn
Not an issue the only idea of connecting via discord was that in case you need me to talk to a local vendor and communicate the details of the product to you in real time.
Sharing all the details as comments can work too though not sure how spontaneous the communication would be.
For someone who is ready to go to La Chapelle to find the price of a pastry for me this is the least I can do ;)
Take care dear @anttn
It would be a pleasure ! Also I don't want to bother you with this. For the moment I think I'll look for what I can find here in Europe second hand, but let's keep the idea in mind if it's really too complicated here :D
But do you have shop that sell those type of machines near your place ?
I'm also replying to your other comment here and I'll be spending today and the next few days at the Chapelle, I'll be happy to go and do a little research on the traces of this feast haha! If you manage to find the street on a map and/or send me a picture (or the name) of this dessert, I think I should be able to find it ^^!
Thanks again for everything, I hope you have a nice day and that you're well 🌱
Near my house ? Nah I am in the middle of a city far from the the farms and fields so most of these shops would be set in the vicinity of places where they do farming.
However this does not stop me to keep researching and looking for info that can be relevant.
I would keep an eye for anything that I come across and ask my friends in case someone knows some place selling these machines.
That looks like a good plan. I wish I were there so I could go around without a map of my google assistant. Who needs it when you have @anttn around ?
I would not mind coming there and exploring the area again if you are around to guide me. Though a starting point could be Krishna Bhawan restaurant at La Chapelle
it is run by Srilankans and so are those pastry shops.
The Srilankan community is pretty close knit and would be able to give directions without any trouble.
Just a thought.
The shop I have in mind had no place to sit and had lots of pastries trays looks like they were into supplying to some other establishments.
Take care dear @anttn and stay safe
Have a great day
Yes, it's sure that it's more in the agricultural areas, it's like for me in Paris, it's not really where they sell these machines ^^ !
I'll go today, will see what I found haha :) Thanks you for the infos, it'll be interesting to investigate a bit 😉
Loved the Krishna Bhawan restaurant btw, went already few times there with a Srilankan friend :)
Have a good day dear !
Yes I do not remember seeing any agricultural tool shops in Paris.
Yes Krishna Bhawan is a nice place. I had an interesting experience there every time someone placed an order the lady working in the kitchen would come out to see who had placed an order before she went ahead to prepare the meal. Not sure if this is the usual practice.
Yes the food was good not too spicy and delicious.
Take care and have a safe adventure
Haha, neither do I ! Would love if that was the fact ^^
Ah, that's weird, never saw that, there or in an others place of the district...
Didn't manage to go today, that was a bit too rainy :)
Have a good day ✌️
