Re: Watling Blue Seal

Thanks for your answers! :cool:
The machine has no assembly for future play. I think if it ever has one, it was removed long time ago. A sheet of paper was glued on the window.

Re: Roma Flotilla

... but you can’t beat original parts. Thats also my opinion. In case of Wulff parts it may be helpful to cast them with a modern alloy, but not printing. To use a 3D printer to build up a modell for casting is ok...but not more. I´m a little bit old school in this case, but it´s part of my hobby t...

Hi T/F. Don't suppose you have a handle plate in that useful pile, do you?
Do you need the complete assembly or only the plate?

The handles assembly takes a hammering and the weak pot metal seems most affected here, especially the internal clamp which crumble.
Hi Treefrog!
The clamp is a typical problem part on Novomat and later machines. Are this parts also recycled in the Roma?

Re: Clown Catcher, info please

The "Brevete SGDG" coin insert was a typical purchased part, used for various machines.

Are the fixing screws for the knobs (three per knob) slotted, or seemed they to be unusual?

Looks like an integrated scale.

Re: French allwin machine

Have removed blue and red paint in large amounts :burp:
The wooden case shows some scratches...normal for a over 100 year old machine.

There is still a lot of work to reconstruct the playfield.

The gun of my Triomphe is also disappeared so I have to build up one. Would take parts from a wrecked German version and a new forged main frame, which fits to the French coins.

Re: Early shooter by New Polyphon

The payout mechanism was used in various machines (Zeppelinschleuder, Minerva, Teifun...) from that era. I think it was used by a lot of manufacturers. It's adjustable with or without coin return, additionally to the token. The Triumph is a purely mechanical machine; others like Loreley or Electra h...

Re: Dewag Coin heads for American bandits advert

@Treefrog
These strange machines has existed, seemed to be from Coppel, Düsseldorf.
A mate scrapped two of them in the early '70s. :cry:

@ Dave
Nice Coinhead! I haven't seen this type before. Was there an inlay in the middle?
