Slick power

Post by handyman »

Topic moved & merged - Site Admin.

Good afternoon,
Currently doing up a Samson Novelty penny machine called Slick!!! Does anybody know what size of battery I would need to power it? First time at doing something like this, so any help would be much appreciated.
TIA Handyman

Hi there Handyman,
I use a Panasonic 3R12 4.5V in my Slick. On ebay for around £3.00.
Hope this helps.
Nick

Nick, thanks for that. Will source one tomorrow. Haven’t got a clue what I’ll do once I get it but trying to work it out is part of the enjoyment.
Thank you once again,
Tony (handyman)

No problem Tony if you need any further photos give me a shout. I love my Slick machine. It is the actual machine I played as a young kid.

Nick
Sorry to bother you again. Was wondering if you were able to send me a whole picture of the workings of your Slick machine so I can compare with what I have, to make sure nothing is missing.

This isn’t my machine. I am trying to get it going for a lady who inherited from her mother. It’s been under wraps in a garage for years. Like you, I have fond memories of playing with these in Heysham Village where I live, so would really like to get it sorted for her. I have managed to find pictures of the original machine and colour scheme, so once I have
rubbed it down I will get it sprayed.

I recently finished work due to MS and bad legs, so I like to think I have my own little repair shop in my garage and love trying to sort things for people.

Thank you once again, but if I ever become a pest with questions you must let me know as I believe in calling a spade a spade.
TIA

Tony

Great looking machine geordy55 - could you vary the number of balls that it played with?
