LOCK DOWN TIME!
Re: LOCK DOWN TIME!
That slot has come up so well nice work.
Cutting glass has been an absolute failure for me I never thought to you tube it. Gunna have to try that.

Re: LOCK DOWN TIME!
Very good WM, you must be pleased with that. Is the cornice on the top of the cabinet original?

Really great job Watlingman.
The feet and top pediments really do make it look special!

Hi Argee
The corniche was copied from a picture I got, and moonriver - the whole thing took around 3 months part-time and waiting for other people like chromers and engineering shop!

Re: LOCK DOWN TIME!
I have one of these which was in storage for at least sixty years and, I believe, all original apart from the motor. The top pediment is a bit different.
Re: LOCK DOWN TIME!
I was wondering how the slot market would be with the current crisis, but it is difficult to tell with the lack of machines able to come to the market. One did finish today on eBay and fetched I would say a very reasonable price, especially given needs some tinkering and a rotten base. Makes some of the Hi Tops I have sold over the last two years seem a bargain.....price £701....
Re: LOCK DOWN TIME!
Indeed. Seems a tad pricey. Supply and demand I guess. If indeed it actually sold for that amount. Frequently they are just bid-up, I would suggest.
I’m looking forward to the next slottie auction, although I fear it is going to be some while. Prices will be interesting. I’m guessing they will be all over the place, but who knows? If the predicted 20% reduction in house prices occurs, will slots follow through the same path?
