From what I remember the 1st reel is spun by friction, usually provided by the 1st regular reel. The amount of friction was controlled by shim washers. They were a pain to get the correct pressure. The "blue" 1st reel never spins as fast as the other 3 reels as it is not kicked by the kick...

Unfortunately, Coventry have closed their doors to any more submissions.. so anyone who wants to sell those machines that don't sell at EH will be out of luck! Not sure why Coventry didn't leave entries open till Tuesday after EH, just in case any late entries are submitted!

I think the reason Steve does so well is he is totally tuned in to modern marketing techniques. His website gets updated regularly (especially the closer to auction day..sometimes adding stuff the night before!!!), he pushes messages thru Twitter and Facebook, has the YouTube channel. In this day an...

Strange as it seems, I've had 2 Bryans in the past with this spike on. I ended up removing them! Still can't figure out why they were there????

Blimey... there's some ugly machines out there!! Lol

Your former statement is more than likely....Silly Prices!
Most of the Allwins on eBay have been there for weeks if not months... Prices are way too high! A few years ago when an Allwin got listed on eBay it was gone within a day.

So will we actually see EH in action on the 18th? Mmmmm, I wonder!
Seems extremely quiet considering only weeks away!

Can't wait to see the finished thing. Good Luck!

I contacted these guys to enquire. The machine in the photo was not for sale. He had bits for a liberty machine... not even any parts for a Jennings. I think he used the picture to capture attention! Waste of time!

Great News for collectors... EH Back!
With two auctions in the lead up to Christmas, Santa is coming early!!!!

Hi Andy, Apologies for not responding. I am still alive... in case you're wondering!!!!! Slot Depot is not my main business so I only work on a few machines a year now, also semi retired so I like to take it easy! Been a hectic Summer, but as the Winter nights draw in I will be spending more time in...

use anyone but UPS!!!!!!
FedEx seem very good, I've used them more than 12 times without a single problem!

I wonder if the seller will part with just the star wheel from that rusty Mills... I need a cog for my rear wheel on the old pushbike, and that cog looks perfect for my bicycle chain to fit!!!!!!!

OK Got It!
I have listed on the WANTED part of the forum my request to purchase any condition a Pin Table. See Advert for details
Thanks

Thanks to all. Unfortunately I have the Sportsman, would like the Jigsaw. If people know any then PM me as you can't list stuff here. thanks

Have listed a wanted advert for any Early Pintables.... How come when I wasn't interested in these there were loads at every auction that no-one wanted!!!!! Now I want one, not a single one appears!!! :!?!: https://pennymachines.co.uk/market/13-2/14-2/57/rock-ola-pintables-or-other-makes-wanted/mach...

Is it worth the trip to EH next weekend for their auction of goods? It is listed as the 1st July 2018, 1pm on the website. Anyone heard different, or driven past EH to see if building work completed?
Don't fancy a wasted journey on Sunday!

it's not flat...it's triangular!

so say Toblerone!!!
