Re: Aristocrat Grosvenor help
Hi The Swede If you email or PM me I can arrange to send you a copy of a service manual. I found it very useful… missing 1 page. Cheers Morning, would this manual be specific to this model of Aristocrat? As I've got a Regal 22 based on this Bonus feature. It is missing a couple of parts but I think...

Re: Apex machine reel strips
Hi Coppinpr, you're right it could be as I'm only basing it on the machines I've seen and the reel strip character below. Yes, those 4 holes on the left are for illumination, again, haven't seen these before but they do look like they were cast but I'm no expert. The holes at the rear of the hood ar...

Apex machine reel strips
Apex1.jpeg Hi All, Good to be back! Picked up a reasonably rare Apex machine the other day and have commenced pulling it down for restoration. Im certain the reel strips are not original as the few Apex machines I've seen have an image similar to a playing card and the Ace card has APEX written thr...

Aristocrat Honey Bee
Topic merged - Site Admin. Hi All, In the process of restoring my Aristocrat Honey Bee and have stripped it down but I've got two small issues. I've searched the forums but nothing specific to my problem. First I've got all the metal cabinet parts removed for re-plating but the main door/front pane...

Final piece, ARISTOCRAT badge.
Handle is a little hard to get in with the new plating.

Re: Aristocrat Clubman & Clubmaster
Wasn't happy with my sanding and paint on the two larger panels. The two pics show my first attempt. Have now been stripped, sanded and primed. Pics to follow.

Re: Aristocrat Clubman & Clubmaster
Thanks Special!
Colour is meant to be brass but does have more of a gold look.
If you've read some earlier posts in this thread, I'm trying to work out the handle return. It seems mine is a different setup to most. Would it be possible to see some pics of yours?

Re: Aristocrat Clubman & Clubmaster
First couple of coats of paint and new lock installed.
Little bit of backplate cutoff to clear the frame.

Re: Aristocrat Clubman & Clubmaster
This is the bottom panel that has the access door to the money box (maybe not the correct terminology?) Paint stripper applied, then sanded. cm27a.jpg Primer applied. cm29a.jpg Lockwood locks arrived today, thanks Gameswat. Needs a slight trim on the backplate so it can close, but looks great having...

Re: Aristocrat Clubman & Clubmaster
Correct, Starlite is finished but I might start a new thread on it, with some before and after shots for reference. The Clubmaster is stripped and painting commenced, chrome pieces are with the electroplater. CB9a.jpg The payout tray polished up pretty good with Autosol. CM24a.jpg cm25a.jpg

Re: Aristocrat Clubman & Clubmaster
Would anyone be interested in pics of this restore and if there is any interest, do I post them here or start another thread?

Re: Aristocrat Clubman & Clubmaster
Thanks TF, I'm going to try a couple of different springs to see if they work first. I have to wait till the handle and other parts come back from the electroplater. I believe, through research here and other sites, it's an early model Clubmaster as it has the webbing - individual reel windows? Coul...

Re: Aristocrat Clubman & Clubmaster
Thanks Guys. The Starlite was in fair to poor shape and the stand, thought id never find one, was in very bad shape. Happy with the end result, just need to find someone to print the 2 Shilling sticker, original is like a foil type material. Thanks Gameswat, bought two locks today. And the middle ho...

Re: Aristocrat Clubman & Clubmaster
Thank you very much Treefrog! The handle mech design is different, see my pic, mine seems to have an extra few linkages plus the device hanging from the top of the cabinet.

Re: Aussie Pokies
Hi Andy,
Thanks for the advice, did know the laws weren't the best. So old pre-decimal Aussie coins not allowed?
PM sent.

Hi, Mick from Melbourne. I've been lurking around this forum for a while and after deciding its probably the best source of info on slots, I decided to join. I couldn't find any decent forums in Oz and as there is quite a few lads from the colonial office here, whom I hope to network with, I thought...
