I think BP has alluded to the issue in that to stop the coins dropping all over you when maintaining the machine and pulling out the jackpot, before doing so you lock thee mechanism in place. This is done using that red bar you have pointed out in picture 4. If you pull the bar away from the post, w...

Where you are pushing on point 1, try levering from where I have show in picture below. In fact this may be why you are not getting the right leverage. You should feel the arm move down - trying pushing all the way down as you might not need to free the ratchet. If you do, you only need to move it d...

Topic merged - site admin. Bit of an old subject, but they really are tightening up on slot sales at the moment. I use to see the occasional machine come up with the below warning, but now am seeing a lot of posted machines with the threat. It has put me off and I suspect others and for those who d...

Hi there, Looking at your pictures, you seem to have a few obvious bits missing on the front, eg coin overflow tube, coin cover and the coin tube. I found a spare mech I have for a Windsor on 1np below. Most 1np machines were converted from 1D and will often have thee original large overflow tube in...

Well... I think I am going to be in the minority here, but I like to keep machines as original as possible. Not sure you are in the minority, I suspect there are many here that either prefer to keep the integrity of a machine as close as possible to the original or at least in line with the period ...

1. Where do you find mechanical parts? Mine is missing the locks and the payout and cash tubes. 2. If the problem turns out to be the solenoid and I think the transformer is also goosed are these parts readily available? 3. Inside the cabinet is a sticker that dates the machine to 1967. Are there a...

Not sure what to entirely make of the market change from '55 to '78, but below you will see the difference in prices based on the cost of living increase during the same period. ..............................................................................1955...........................1955 - today....

I am sure these have been on there for more than 6 months, well certainly a long time....There is a nice working model again been on ebay for a very long time, lots of offers, but they want lots of dosh...

Well another new term for me, a "dog", well we know why it's called that, it is a bugger to get the timing exactly right with this barking mad mad piece of metal. You looked like you were levering in the right place with the knife, but I would use something a little sturdier, that will jus...

It looks like the machine has not completed it's cycle, so all the components are in an open state. You can either trying to slide the mechanism back into the machine, lifting the handle up before hand and then once in, pulling the handle all the way down. Or wit the mechanism out, try with a large ...

Well I feel a little stupid now, yes you're right, this is like the Bell Cascade, as the coin cascades down past each of the trips... OK, going to hide now

I have a Wonders DropaCopper, been converted to 1np although thinking about changing back to old penny which should be easy with a bit of tinkering, but I have a question if anyone has one of these or is in the know. Mine only pays a single 3 coins on each win, rather than scaling up for each win po...

What condition is the new elevenses in treefrog, is it a complete rebuild or just a cosmetic job. No definitely a cosmetic job, new backflash, locks and strip and polish oh and half inch ball....very clean inside. My first machine purchase from the states, turned up quickly and well packaged, shipp...

Now having seen your picture, there a couple of loose looking springs on the left of the jackpot, but should not cause your issue, the item under the nylon actuator is more odd and maybe blocking the machine. I would take the mechanism out and try turning it over to see what happens...Below is a pic...

this being the most popular of the Bryans machines with over 11,000 sold Interesting prices and analogy treefrog but do not think that Bryans manufactured 11,000 Elevenses. I understand that Bryans numbering started at 101 and around 4500 Bryans machines in total were produced over their whole rang...

If you have a video feature on your mobile, why don't you take a snip of the issue in hand and post a link to youtube on here, might help diagnose the issue....

Not the earlier gun based shooter, but a '60s/'70s bandit with a working Duck shoot feature, not the prettiest of machines, but.... Seems so cheap for what it is and I guess less common than standard electro bandits of the day, especially in working order....only wish I had the space :-( http://www....

Having just acquired another Elevenses project, this being the most popular of the Bryans machines with over 11,000 sold, I was intrigued to know what these would have cost in today's prices new, based on what we are paying for them now. Generally, from poor condition, they seem to start around the ...

Try and lift one, must be the heaviest counter top bandit made. A picture of the front doors open would have been useful. Yes, the advert clearly states this. I reckon they must be over 80/90kg each. Even with the mech and cash tray out, they are too heavy to lift... Sega did a series of heavy mach...

I never thought it was a Nugget and I don't think anyone else did, that's why it was £240. Anyway, thanks to info posted here it's beginning to look more interesting than I thought. The forum does its job once again. Would this lead one to believe the castings are original? I can't imagine anyone w...
