Re: Old Bell needed..........
I am not looking for a whole strip. I was hoping someone might have one that is of no use, that they could cut a bell off that I could then overlay on the "painted" one. It would certainly look better than it does at the moment.

Re: Old Bell needed..........
Treefrog, let me know how I can reimburse you and I will send you my address.

Oil/Grease removal

What would be the best way of cleaning the tube wi...

Re: Shipping Bell Fruit Cascade from UK to Canada
I seem to remember laying on my back between two dining chairs that were supporting the front and glass above me. Offering the playfield upwards using both hands to keep it level I used another hand to realign the coin trigger and my spare hand to move the coin entry over. Having got that lot contr...

Re: Slot Machine Depot
Thanks for the information guy's. I didn't realise he was a member here.

Slot Machine Depot
Does anyone know if this business is ongoing?
I have tried to make contact three times in the last 6 months by Email, which is my prefered way of conversing. However, I have yet to have any response.
The site appears to be up to date, and does say "Best to email or txt any enquiries!"
