Re: Bradley Challenger and variants

Hi,
The locks on my machine are numbered the same also.
I have taken some picture of the glass on my Challenger and will post them soon. The two small pins are needed to hold the half sheet of glass in place.

Re: Machines at Aston's (Dudley) on 8th November

Hi, I won the Farmyard Shooter. Not a bad machine, it has original parts in a new wooden case. The cast metal feet have bolts in them so you can adjust them on an uneven floor. This makes the case seem taller than a Pussy Shooter. At the moment the machine is painted a light blue colour. Does anyone...

Re: mirror sign

Most print shops will be able to make a sign for you. I have had transfers made for the Electric Travelling Crane and also a mirrored sign for a gipsy fortune teller. The sign shop put gold coloured letters on top of the mirrored glass, then clear glass was placed on top of that. I think it worked v...

Re: Unknown cast iron machine stand???

Hi everyone,
Although this stand might have arrived with other coin-op parts, it may have started life in a factory or engineering shop. It may only be a stand for a grinding machine or drill. Hope you solve your problem.
