FORUM

I sent one to somebody last week and I'm pretty sure they didnt get it either.

Thanks TF that makes sense. I'm glad it's not just me.

I've sent a couple of messages in the last week and although they appear to have been sent normally they appear in the 'outbox' rather than 'sent messages' which all previous messages have normally been routed to. Is it just a matter of time before they move over or haven't they been sent? Cheers.

Whereabouts are you based TT600al? I may be able to help. I did e-mail you through the Forum but you may not have received it.

I have messaged you hiflyer.

You don't hang around Paul! Looks really good.

Site looks great, nice to see all Stuart's hard work in such worthy hands

I've done a few for people Scottie in the UK. I use an Epson wide format printer and print on a good quality matte photo paper ( 230gsm ) and then laminate both sides to make it more stable. They seen to be wearing well in use. You just need to take a few reference dimensions from your original to h...

Suddenly George Michael doesn't sound so bad! ( I think I'd settle for Bowie though )

You inspired me to look up mine .... I share with George Michael. Now I wish I hadn't looked.

Happy Birthday ..... what similarities can you gather from that birthday group Paul?

You are doing fine cor ........ 'folie' was the only word that tripped me up. Google translates it as 'madness' or 'insanity'. I won't comment!

I now see it's an upgraded version of this .... ANTIQUE BRASS DUAL SPIN HORSE RACE PUT & TAKE SPINNER DREIDEL TEETOTUM GAME WW1

Fantastic, cheers TF ....I'll try an experiment with an elastic band!

I have one with three swans on the belly glass, rather than the Mad faces. It's not perfect and has had a bit of retouching but it's pretty good. Might be a couple of days before I get a chance to dismantle it and get it on the scanner. Out of interest how do you plan to reproduce it? ...tricky job.

As always I knew I could rely on you guys. **xXx** Those references really date it nicely. It came from some of the final items of stock that a house clearer has had stored in an old cottage oop here in N Norfolk. It wouldn't surprise me if there were cards at one time, now lost in a tea chest somew...

Not coin operated, but I just wonder if anyone had ever come across this game before. Its tinplate and is just over 10" diameter and shaped rather like a large crown cap from a beer bottle. Its really well made with a nice flywheel on the small spinner and lead weights to make the big arrow spi...

Lovely looking machine ....well saved! **xXx** Tragic to think there are machines like this still being skipped. As Paul said I'm sure there will be help available here. If you are a facebook user there is a group on there as well, just search 'Fruit machines,Electro-mechanicals from 1970s' or this ...

One question I'd love the answer to is how do operators keep those high value notes floating on top of the coins without them ever moving .......is it as basic as sellotape

Nice one Toby ..... I almost felt I was in the arcade
