The original picture has gone from the thread from Treefrog's link, but if you are looking for expanded mesh then I have just had some from Ebay to do a Clubmaster....

Thanks for that Treefrog. I will experiment further.

I am working on a Mills Extraordinary which I bought missing the escalator and Jackpot. I have purchased a Chalmers escalator, in the photo, which was sold as for a Mills. The coin entry doesn't quite line up and the mounting hole in the case to the left of the glass is a pivot point for a lever on ...

I found a very close match for my Clubmasters....

I paint the whole area with enamel and then with a cloth pulled tight on the fingertip and lightly dipped in thinners I wipe off the letters, changing to a new area of cloth each wipe. Works well for me.

I have done what I think is a "not too bad" repair on the mirror glass of my Duo Mat. The mirror was missing between the playfield and between the green pinstripes. I used Rust-oleum spray. I cleaned the area with car brake cleaner on a cotton bud to ensure it was spotless from grease then...

It's a small controller that takes inputs and gives outputs. Easy to learn to program.... I use them at work ...

Thank you all.... Gives me an idea how it worked. I might ditch the electronics and make it work with a micro controller (Arduino) I will do an update when I get to that bit in a month or so.

Topic split & merged - Site Admin. I have a 777 that I will be starting on soon. The photos show a solenoid, a microswitch and the control. All disconnected. I am hoping to get whatever function they have back again... So that's my question... What is the play sequence? Does it time out then tr...

It's a long time since I had a Minisoccer but I think they were quite basic (from memory). Is the coin operating the microswitch on the coin chute? The timing is done by the small motor under the play field. This is where mine had an issue and would not work. The motor went open circuit so the game ...

Thanks for the info. I didn't realise you could buy that type of spring. I was searching clockspring which brings returns of car parts. Searching clock Mainspring gave me a couple of hits so I will see what comes of that.

The clock spring in my Wulff Duolett has broken. Anyone know of a repair technique for this type of spring?

I'm wondering if any of you have a side interest of Jukeboxes. A friend of mine picked up this non-functional music machine a month or so back for next to nothing. It is now working and we would like to see what we can find out about it. We know it is French and a date of 1969 or thereabouts but hav...

I got the main ones from here. The 4 case ones are 1 1/2" stainless rivets that I tapped a thread on.

I know it should be red but it came to me yellow and I think it looks better yellow. I managed to locate some slot-less screws to replace the original rusted ones. Not many slot-less screws around.....

I have been searching for some good reel tins for ages and finally got some last month. Before that I had been trying to find someone with the CAD skills I don't have to do a drawing of some reel tins so I can print some. I finally found "the person" and this is what came out. I am really ...

He took $250 off me promising he had sent the items fedex. He told me that at least 4 times on email before I realised he was either a crook or there were other issues. It's not the money it's the machines that are on hold for part to turn up....

This is the one I wanted....
Now I have looked at it again after so long I would still like it but there could be better machines to desire....
How close to home is this machine Moonriver?

I wanted a Aherns Pile Driver that was in Mablethorpe. Rubbish to play but the workmanship was amazing. I would visit it whenever I was in the town but the owner was not interested in selling. The last time I went to see it the owner had died and the machine gone. One of the guys in there said it ha...

So.... Just to follow up on my last post here, 12 weeks or so ago, about sending items for chroming to ACF Howell in the midlands. 13 weeks later I have the items back and wow do they charge. They estimated about £200 plus carriage. The final bill was £303. Overall I am not overly pleased with the f...
