Hi Also, Has anyone ever attempted to put the teeth back on the escalator??? I have one that has the teeth filed off to allow coins to "roll" along the escalator - I know this was a modification recommended by mills in their catalogues and guides that came with the machines. I was tempted ...

Thanks to all who gave their suggestions. I will try and email MrSlot again, just in case the last order I placed went amiss!!!

I remember in the Market Place on this site there were advertised Mills springs for sale? They appear to be gone!!! Anyone know where I can get some Mills springs from (new/repro). Usually order from MrSlot but since his house move he appears to have disappeared and not processing orders!!! Bah!! Th...

What a cracking little machine mech. Although I'm a mechanical man through and through, this "bespoke" job on a mech is beautiful. I did bid on this machine but it went too high for what it was. Shame your taking the "electric" parts off, would have been nice to see it working. I...

Hooray!!!! Finally got the Payramid. Its the 60s model, which is fine. It works great, and the mechanism is outstanding. Just love all the levers, springs and cogs that make it work. When researching this particular model, I was surprised by the lack of images and details about, what is considered b...

Thanks Speedwell, it was reading the Melright site that got me confused as to which model I should go for, so I'm now hoping some nice people from this site will give me their experience and opinion. The older version looks "more cluttered" inside, which I love, but if it doesn't work too ...

Hi Guys, As some of you may have noticed in the Market Section on this site, I'm hoping to purchase a Bryans Payramid sometime this year, it'll be my big purchase for 2013. However, just need your advise or opinion on which model? I've read that there is a 30s/40s version that has the plain front (n...

Hey here's a much better way of selling a slot on ebay.... Sell one of those monthly magazines that gives away a complete product.. but you only get one bit with each mag.. you know the ones I'm on about, build a model Titanic, but it takes about 2000 issues to get all the parts! :HaHa: Sell a magaz...

I agree with coppinpr, it's really infuriating that thousands of modern current currency pub-style fruit machines are listed on ebay, but old vintage tatty one arm bandits are pounced on within seconds and removed!!! I'm not convinced that ebay has a "fully" automated system for removal, o...

Anyone spotted the Sega Bandit on Ebay at the moment? It's for the case, and all fittings, but no mechanics!!! Complete with phone number to call. I'm guessing the insides are available privately, nudge nudge wink wink... Well done to whoever this is (maybe someone on these forums?). Very clever ide...

What such a shame that a hobby so harmless is so hard to pursue. Maybe collecting knives, guns and drugs may be an easier hobby to take up!!! Sad to see the disappearance of the Slots from Ebay... Find it quite boring now, typing in Slot Machines, and being bombarded with plastic toy slots!!!! Looks...

Hi Guys,
Does anyone own or know someone who owns the Mills Future Play machine, who they can put in touch with me. I'm after some High Quality photos of said machine. It's proving quite elusive.
Thanks.
Example of machine below:

Ouch, that looks messy... If I'm honest, I think you're mad leaving those electrics in there. From memory, I believe there are no true earths in that wiring. Those transformers get hot and if the coil breaks inside - potential melt down or worse, fire! I think machines do look nice lit up, but would...

Topic merged - Site Admin.

Been offered this slot, but I don't have a clue about it.. Only had pictures sent, but looking closely at the workings they look somewhat different from usual Mills type mechanics?

Is it someone on here... we're all gonna be paranoid here now. Is it you, or you, or me!!! Ahhh

Let's get the Sherlock Holmes hat on and solve the mystery....

Thanks Jerry, Glad you liked the article. As Jerry mentioned the photos will do the article justice, so hopefully these will be on line after Christmas. I have further articles that may be of interest following recent trips to Vegas, and the teaching of my computer students of how things were achiev...

Hi Guys, Have been reading this post with interest... Just wondered if anyone else received a message from an eBay member when they listed a machine. I had a machine listed recently, and received the following message from another user: "Hi Do you have a gaming licence as I understand ebay will...

Just wondered if anyone owns this book, Automatic Pleasure - History of the Coin machine. I've tried searching for pictures of the content, or reviews but found none. Can someone here give an honest opinion of the book, if its just picture after picture, or does it give info about the machines it sh...

Stumbled across this web site, thought you guys may be interested in getting your loved one to buy you one for Christmas, if not, buy it yourself..
Ties with slots and more on them!!! A tie may go well with my jeans, T-Shirt and trainers....
