Watch some of the NFB sites and you can get a second hand brailler for $200 about. Try NFB for a loan to buy one.

Lol, unfortunately my state's department for the blid is one that promotes the use of the slate and stylus over the perkins braille writer, which I don't have a problem with, I'd just like to find a 40 cell slate somewhere and I'd be happy.

Ask your state department for the blind for a Perkins Braille machine.
Don't you think they will give you one to play and make pictures on?
Actually, tell them you need one for Brailling instructions for your job or to practice your Braille so you can use Braille better for work and you need the Perkins Brailler.
I pushed for my state to give me one and yes, I learned to lie and make up why I needed things. It had PO me when I heard they have Perkin Braillers sitting in the state office supplies as they aren't the most popular adaptive equipment that people want.
