you might be able to buy the machines on e-bay, but all states require that you have a permit for an x-ray tube(yeah yeah, feign ignorance when the govt. comes knocking, i know.).
if your tube blows, i don’t know how easy it will be to get another one, unless of course those are for sale on e-bay as well.
