Gum Machine My New Project

[Ltransam]

    Larry you are correct .I do have a manual that came with it . But It's only a Training Manual just step By step on how to Remove the money & Replace the supplys & Wipe down .Manly a Service Man's To Do list for training .

I did see the Silver Queen . But I realy Don't Collect Candy & Gum Machines .  Although I do have 2 Candy Stoner 180 & Canteen S-6 And 2 Gum Vendors Stoner Fresh Gum & Now the Canteen Gum .  When Will It Stop . The Reason For the Canteen's was Before my Father Passed He Worked for them from the Early Sixtys In to the 80s He had Mention them before & Stated He Had only seen 1 because most were Destroyed He was told And Personly I never seen any other one then Mine now .


Don't worry Glen I'll try to Get More Pictures As I get Closer To finishing .

Well this is Not as exciding as the other post going on Here 

But I showing are a couple more pictures of Progress  The first is the Polished Trim parts . The little letter's were tough . Now in the earlyier picture showing the Silver You may ? Have seen the Letters painted red or Burgundy .I'v decided to Polish mine but IF! later I change my (half of ) Mind I could do it later .
The second is of the coin Mech installed & Working  I also decided NOT to mess with it since it works fine now .I a firm beleiver in if it aint broke & works dont mess with it . I found that in most cases it was'nt broke till I fixed it 

Any way I'll keep working

Thanks Creighton 

 
     Well I got to work on it a couple more hours today & I think I'm 85% completed . What I really Like abought this Machine is It can Vend the 5 Small squre Sticks of gum Or It can vend 2 small & 3 Full size Sticks . Or only 3 Full Sticks .Which is the Way I'm Going to leave it . Because I probley would not be able to find the small sticks anyway . This can be done by them supplying 3 trays That when removed (In Pic ) Will allow the Full Sticks .

There are also Small (weights ) Supplyed (see pic of 1 in cornner ) that are also used as a Stop (NO GUM VEND ) so in each cornner I left them in place Which means when you drop in a penny and try to use eather of the outer Knobs or Levers thay won't go down & it makes it act like out of stock . COOL 

You can see the full stick in place in Picture This is a Very Versatile little machine

Grap !! Lost the the other post & Had to start again .

Just a couple more pic's . All i need are Knobs & to install the Latching bar &find a new  Lock 

Thanks Eric for the site to look to check .I have'nt as of yet though 

I removed the Original window add which was Badly Faded & showed the small sticks . And am useing the Original window Shelf (Rack ) I had bought the Large Packs of gum thinking they were each Labeled peice by peice  NOT    I beleive that they used a stick in each Slot . So I cut the pack label down and used it Pluse the Two Original Empty gum labels .I think it Looks OK for now ??  Untill I can locate Labeled Sticks .
