Jubilee Cashcendo & Riviera projects

If you'd made it to the auction on Sunday gone you could have asked him yourself.

As for oiling your pars, what you get up to in your special alone time is up to you, but do enjoy.

Is that like "greasing your pecs".

[ottothemadandevil]

Lol!
Considering I work 12 hours a day on a computer I am absolutely crap at typing!!
Are modern 2p's weighted differently to old ones?
They still keep getting stuck on the coin slide.... It feels like they're stuck to a magnet.... Is that the case??

I've just shelled out 6 quid for a parts catalogue, so hopefully that will shed some light on the project....

Cheers for all the help...... Now........ I'm off to lube my cogz.......

[badpenny]

All 2np and 1np coins issued after nineteen hundred and fast asleep have steel in them.
This affects the thickness and of course they stick if a magnet is fitted to the coin gate ..... most Jubilees do.

If you remove the mech and look at it from the back, at the top you'll see a cylindrical magnet on a pivot. It's usually held in place by a split pin or similar.

Just remove it and bury no less than 8 feet deep 3 rods and two chains above high tide mark at midnight, it will never trouble you again.

BP you're a hero - magnet is removed and awaiting execution.
Mechanically working, just needs a good clean.
Have you found my marquee yet? You've had 24 hours after all....

Cheers

Sorry chap I haven't, I got distracted today by eating.
That and the fact that someone was asking a similar question a while back and I seem to remember we ended up either pointing him at Henry Powell or taking out a contract on him .... one or the other.

Hit men wouldn't work on me, I'm a vegetarian.
I've contacted Henry, but I'm not optimistic: the parts catalogue alone cost £6... I reckon it'll be one of those price lists that make you weep.
I've seen the sort of thing before when I rebuilt my Morris Minor - catalogues that have everything you'd ever need but it all costs an arm and a leg....... I need all my money for Tofu and bullets...

Just in case some of our active members aren't reading this thread, you'd best place a wanted ad in The Market.
It's free, but you will need to register to use The Market, your Forum membership doesn't work on it.

Be precise in what you need, if possible find a library photo of your machine and post it with a circle around the exact bit you're looking for, but for Christ's sake keep quiet about the Tofu.

Watching (and hearing) your second machine and looking at its sad state, I think you have the perfect machine here to learn from. Strip the front right down, clean and re-paint any damaged glass and replace the lights. You will learn so much about the way these things are built.
As to the mech, it sounds like a few free running (actually not free running) problems and perhaps a small timing issue, although that might be because it's gummed up. Don't take it totally apart - try this order of things:
Remove the coin tube, remove the reel bundle, remove the payout slides, remove the clock and clean it well, but only if you're sure you know how to replace it. If not, clean and lube it, and what is left, as it stands. Then clean and oil the reel bundle, but don't dismantle it, unless you're sure how to rebuild it. Clean all the slides (but do not oil or grease), check all the springs around the slides and on the vertical and horizontal fingers, replace the slides (in the correct order), replace the reel bundle and the coin tube and test... In the afternoon we can start on to lesson two

Check the forums Resources for procedures like removing the reel bundle - makes it easier.

Jesus Christ, why don't I just set fire to the damn thing lol!!!!!!
Thanks for the advice, Im at work the next 4 days so will get started again on Sunday.
4 days of pretending to work but secretly researching Bandits lol

Otto,
more stuff you might find useful for your bonfire or even some stuff you could use. Stafford to Leeds isn't that arduous.

[ottothemadandevil]

I did see these thanks, a touch out my price bracket though.

[jonesthegarage]

It was a very much tongue in cheek suggestion, I'm no expert but think he'd be lucky to get £50 the lot.

[ottothemadandevil]

Do you reckon he'd just give up the marquee? There's no way they're going to sell at that price... I'm sure we could come up with some form of fair price.... I think

[jonesthegarage]

Give him a try, you've got nothing to lose, but I wouldn't worry too much, there seems to be plenty of these machines around and something's bound to turn up.

[ottothemadandevil]

I've sent him a message so we'll see.

I've searched everywhere on line and even emailed a few collectors.... still nada...

I tried putting a wanted advert in the Market Place section but it said my user name was invalid........ god knows

[slotalot]

I feel sure that god will be along shortly to sort you out PM you are needed!!!
