Hi Hol,
I can't vouch that it's the same exact model, but that's about what it
looks like. Amazing how it always gives people that smile!
If nobody buys it, then we'd let it go to where ever would have the most
use for it (and maybe pay some delivery gas). Let me know what you think.

Hi Gideon,
This one?
http://www.weber.edu/WSUImages/employeewellness/Bod_Pod.JPG
I don't know if you'd find anyone interested in buying this machine at
sudo room, but if you need to get rid of it we would definitely put the
components to creative re-use. Sensory deprivation chamber in the sound
room, anyone??? Looks pretty awesome.
Cheers,
Hol

Hello, I was asked to post this message about a bunch of possible parts
here by a member. Let me know if anyone finds this useful.
My name is Gideon Weisberg, and work I with the non-profit Riekes Center
in Menlo
Park (mentoring in sports, fitness, the arts, music, and nature
awareness). Years ago (10?) we were given a Bod-Pod to allow the fitness
department to offer a (then) state-of-the-art body assessment system to
low-income students, as well as the other athletes who train at our center.
While at the time this version of the Bod-Pod system ran about $50,000,
it is now
obsolete. It likely has lots of useful parts for a tinkering lab.
I am looking for ways to find a new home for the system, and am especially
interested in helping any useful parts find their way into innovative reuse
or educational programs (or at least becomes somebody's weird
furniture/studio prop).
Any proceeds from selling this system will go directly into our programs
(the first
$750 I can raise will be buying new tires for our passenger
van). The Bod Pod (with it's computer station, manual, and
calibration/maintenance records) can be delivered within the Bay Area.
I am open to thoughts and suggestions regarding the ultimate fate of this
devise. I
don't want it to go in a land-fill.
Thank you for your consideration,
