Thanks for the reply. Yes, Paul it's all 3 reels. I'm sure it just needs a slight adjustment.

The machine in question is a Mills Romanhead The reels spin correctly, but on the odd time, the reels hardly move when the dagger arm is pulled. Could this be caused by the kicker not making contact with the reels correctly, and if so, why only the odd time? I would say this happens about 1 in every...

Silly question, but what was the idea of a gold award, as the coin wasn't gold and didn't have any value? . I ask this because I have a Watling machine with a gold award.

I've noticed lately that the handle to my Mills Hi Top has begun to stick and doesn't return on its own. It doesn't happen every time, but I have noticed on the inside of the cabinet, the handle internal mechanism has started to rub on the inside - see picture. Is this normal and can it be adjusted ...

Can anyone recommend a courier for moving a Jennings bandit about 300 miles. Just don't like the thought of the machine being dropped off the van.

An update on my last post I should have explained, the reason I'm keeping my machine outside, is that Ive reached the limit of 2 machine's inside the house before the war office starts ranting !!RANT!! In the summer, I lined the garage walls, and took off the up and over door. I replaced it with a s...

Hi With Winter just around the corner bringing with it colder and darker nights, is there an ideal humidity for keeping slot machines in. I have some of my machines now outside in an unheated garage. As high humidity and damp will cause damage, I was just wondering as a rule of thumb what the ideal ...

The Prince August, being a softer metal had a lower melting point, ideal for when you're having to melt it down on the cooker in the kitchen. A sound tip is try to do the casting when the wife isn't about, and don't use one of her best saucepans. .

It was the 200g size I think.

The putty I used was -

Siligum Gedeo Pebeo Silicone Moulding Paste, you can obtain it easily online.

I made a Wonders coin slot out of Prince August, and although it's a soft metal, it still looks good today.
I posted it on the forum back in May 22, 2014.

Thanks got it sorted.
I wonder what the record is for the amount of wins after the jackpot is paid out, I managed the 8 balls plus another 1 ball -
8 balls = 8 pennies plus jackpot of approx 50 pennies
plus 1 ball = 2 pennies

Topic moved & merged - Site Admin. Yesterday I managed to win the Jackpot on my 1930s version of the Bryans Payramid (Showman). When I put another penny in the slot, the jackpot trap door is still opening and closing when the handle is turned. For some reason it doesn't want to reset itself :!?...

Thanks guys for the information

Can anyone identify this BMCo allwin, I'm looking to add this to my collection, but never seen one like this before. Is it a genuine BMCo machine?

Hi Paul
Sorry I should have said it pays 4 on 2 cherries and a lemon or mint, and should pay 2 on 2 cherries but its not doing. It sounds like a weak spring as you said. If the spring cannot be adjusted are they easy to replace with a new one.

Lately I've noticed my Watling has stopped paying out on 2 cherries, it does pays out on 2 cherries and a lemon or mint. All the other payouts are working fine
Is it something that can be easily sorted out.

Is there a DVD I can buy showing Blackpool and the Pleasure Beach in the 1960's ? and if so, where is the best place to buy it from

I've had a word with the guy who's selling it, he says he hasn't got a clue what the holes are for, maybe ventilation for the jackpot according to him
