Re: Bryans Elevenses & Brenner Skill Fun explained

Have always wanted one! I think they are really neat.
Maybe I am pushing my luck but.... you would not have a video of the inside mechanism in action, would you ?

Thanks, Christophe.

Re: Whats My Line or Many Happy Returns pictures please

Hi, I also own a What's My Line. I shall take some pictures of the inside and will post soon. Any particular part of the mech you are interested in ? Sorry, I can't measure the size of my balls (--errr, did I actually write this ?) as I don't have the tool for that... I'll be back soon. Christophe W...

Re: Gold Awards and Reel Strips for Pace Comet Orange ?

Thanks tree-frog for the suggestions. I have contacted Bernie Berten as I also need a few other parts for my various machines (springs, cashbox, award cards, etc...). Let's see if he reverts. If you could locate and provide the contact number for Krahl, this would be great too ! Are they based in th...

Gold Awards and Reel Strips for Pace Comet Orange ?

Dear Alll I have just bought this little Pace Comet, and will probably have a few questions in the coming days... Right now, I am looking for Gold Awards . I suspect finding original Pace Gold Awards will be tough as I read somewhere that these were rare... - Does anyone know where I could find some...

Re: Ball Release Mechanism

I know that this thread is very old, but I thought I'd post here rather than creating a new post. What about if you want to release a ball at the top of a cabinet is the easiest way to have a tube of balls and have a mechanism like a cog to push one in from the bottom so it pushes one out from the t...

Re: New Steve Hunt auctions

Yes, I think I read that somewhere else in this forum too. Was that not due to some law/regulation about the maximum amount which a machine was allowed to pay out ? That's sad, because a bandit without its original jackpot is... well... It makes this beautiful machine somewhat less desirable (to me,...

Re: New Steve Hunt auctions

Mills Castle Front (...) There some was something not quite right and I cannot remember what it was, certainly the escalator had been chopped... FYI : also, the Castle Front was missing the jackpot mechanism. The description did not mention anything about this, but I noticed on the pictures that th...

Re: allwin type machine - Elite

Hi Jimmycowman, I saw that one too, but let it pass as it seemed to be missing a few essential parts --namely a few brass parts that act as trips or levers to keep the coin wheels from spinning, as well as the jackpot release at the bottom (but maybe it's just the picture that's not clear enough...)...

Re: Ruffler & Walker "What's My Line"

Thanks for your input. As suggested, I shall treat the worms (well, actually the wood !) ASAP, just in case. Woa! gameswat, your technique sounds impressive !!. Am curious to see the end-result of such a restoration. However, it is also very scary (so many things which could go wrong, and ruin the w...

Ruffler & Walker "What's My Line"

Dear All. I am now the very happy owner of this beautiful baby (drove to Holland to pick it up). It seems complete and working fine so far. In the coming days I might have a few questions for you experts, though... photo1.JPG 1). the backflash is in a good shape considered the age of this machine, b...
