Re: Novelty Merchantman lattice crane boom part wanted

Maybe with a valuable item such as this crane one might think of getting parts re cast. There are companies that do it. And it helps retain originality and value.

Re: Peter Simper machines

I seen a couple on ebay. I had one a few years ago, very nice as well. Mine had a road theme with some traffic signs on the reels. To be honest, the cabinet looked more like a jukebox. I do believe that Simper did one off artwork on machines to suit where they were sited. I'm guessing mine may have ...

Re: Jamiesons Skill poker machine

First job is to remove the pcbs and replace all components, especially capacitors and resisters. You won't get exact parts but you will get equivalents. In the case of caps, always go higher, especially on voltage. It will work the same but last longer. Check for dry solder joints, clean all pcb con...

Re: Bingolett

The lamps in these are called festoon bulbs. You can't use LED lamps as the the filament lamps already fitted are AC. The LEDs are DC. It will not work unless you alter the lamp output to DC. It will also need to be regulated and not just through a bridge rec., otherwise your LED lamps won't last 5 ...

Re: electric amuser info needed

Not too hot on these but I think it is supposed to give you an electric shock. Back in the day it was said to be stimulating and good for you, but electric shocks in my view are not good. So the two knobs should be connected so when you deposit a coin it gives you a shock. Just buy old German machin...

Auctions and costs

Now i have mentioned this before but not really had a real answer.If ibuy something on ebay (auction) and i get it for 200 i pay 200.But machine auctions charge both seller and buyer.so if bought a machine on ebay for 200 i dont expect to pay 250 when i collect it.This is mainly why i avoid auctions...

Re: 1960s Wolff Jupiter

The paint on that looks like one I restored years ago with brass and gold leaf finish, then laquered. If it is that one it would be clean as I stripped the lot, maybe 17 years ago. I sold it to Paul in Essex and he had it years. He did say he was moving it on, I think it is that one.

Re: jackpot allwin edges

Hi Keith, I would get some of that wooden edging that's patterned with a router. I'm guessing it's about 18mm, or just use T moulding, maybe in chrome. You can get the cutters for the slot on ebay, or get the wooden edging of your choice and spray with chrome paint (odds and ends) or the like which ...

Re: Bell-Fruit Manufacturing Co. bandits

Worth what you can get really. At a guess about 40 quid. If it needs work even less. And that is if you can advertise without it being taken off. You need a licence now.
