FORUM

Just my view, but I don't see the Auction page in quite that way. When I put the Duke on, I put as much info as needed to attract people then redirected them to the auction section of the Forum where it was easy to put videos, photos, and for people to ask questions and for me to answer them. The re...

Spent most of my life trying to "pull a winner". Most of them wouldn't even talk to me

Nice to see the Aristo on the auction page, but have to say you're wrong about the unfriendy auction page. I used it for the first time to auction the Little Duke two weeks ago and it could not have been easier

Putting it in the Auction is the perfect answer. I'll have a little bid for sure.

I dont have a lot to do with electro mechanical machines so I cant help much with the wiring but I do have a few basic comments, 1. if the solenoid shown above is rewired and had a new spring fitted it might well work but would not actualy do anything as it is shown in the photo, it does not appear ...

Ever had a reel bundle on a slot machine with too much side to side movment? I have several and I've always had trouble fixing it, but today I came up with a good idea that works. Now, I'm sure all the gurus will say it's an old idea they have used for years but at least it will be on the forum now ...

If I post wanted adds on Gumtree from Lewes, Brighton, Dover, Southampton and Portsmouth, can we have an auction down here?

New reel strips are available on Ebay regularly, but check they are correct set. The missing lug sounds like an operator trick to reduce payouts. The slide is, of course, the usual problem with "pot metal" slides. If I remember, someone on the forum has dozens. CAN be mended with metal glu...

Came across this case furniture part from a Mills Hi-top, Was this a common variation? I seem to remember this style from when I was a kid but Ive not come across one since Ive been collecting, Anyone know what the correct picture should be in the little window,perhaps this one is correct? 7-7-7 pla...

Here is a photo of a good condition version, so not a lot of difference as far as the case is concerned. A little work and good as new. Now what about the mech

Is this the earliest known photo of BP and JC?
Taken at Blackpool 1958, it's the choice of machine that is the dead give-away

yes it was me ofcourse,but I really dont understand the guys view I was actually going to say I was selling then decided to say Id seen it, as my user name is the same there and here it was hardly hiding. my bad choice of words really,I never thought about hiding

THAT'S what this forum is all about and so good at: question asked... question answered.... and all the rest of us learn a little bit more about the hobby...

I cannot believe you have another surely

Can you believe I never had one in the first place?
Never once said it was mine, only that I have it. To quote an old Ebay chestnut, I'm "selling it for a friend".

Here is a video of it in action:

Trust you to say something bad about a post of mine. Nothing new there as usual

once read that due to its size and weight you need to steady them with your hand otherwise they move as you pull the handle. Is that true? I also heard they were shipped here as new crated for 10/- ????? No not true really,the handle is more of a downward movment than a normal pull so its quite sta...

even more Little Duke photos

aditional photos for the Little duke in the Pennymachine auction

I should have bought the towel vendor,it was local to me and I liked it, just seen another really nice machine on ebay....but I can afford it

Dont know why but I reall like this railway platform towel vendor
