What a difference a year makes.

A year ago today I became a member here on SMC and would like to thank all the members here who helped me by answering questions and allowing me to help when needed.

I would never have guessed that there were so many great people here and that I would have made a few good friends along the way. And to think that I started out with a 1982 Vendo Pepsi machine to having close to 40 different machines most of which were found or purchased from members here.

Just wanted to thank the SMC community for a great first year and hope many more are to come.

Hi Ken, Glad you decided to join... going from 1 machine to 40 in a year,WOW... you got the bug bad and much have a large place to keep them all... not enough space is what limits me... and of course the wife has some to do with it too!  LOL

Ken...congrats on your 1 year anniversary, but more importantly, thanks for all your help, both to me and to the other smc members.

Keep on collecting!

I'll second what Bob says - thanks for your help Ken. It was a genuine pleasure to meet you face-to-face when I was en route to Michigan earlier this year.

I also REALLY appreciate your help with the cooling in my Glasco slider.  Not many people would volunteer their services on a cooling system and turn it around in under 24 hours so I could pick it up on the way back home.

I still owe you a big favor, so keep checking my neck of the woods for anything interesting I can pick up for you!

Ken,

Glad to have you in the gang!  40 in a year--quite impressive.  I used to be on the one a month plan but have slowed down a bit lately.  Picked up my first vintage slot machine today though!  Will post under a separate subject with pictures!
