Title: Pachinko anyone?
Post by: collecture on May 13, 2016, 05:27:44 pm
Picked up a Heiwa pachinko machine today - $30
Looks complete, but need more than 15 balls to really test it.
Anybody have one too?
Are they wired 12v? Internal wiring is like 22ga. I need to figure out the wiring - a few switches and a couple of lights. Most is unmolested except where power is connected.

I've had a couple of these. I just used a small 9v battery as it only has to light the  win bulbs. Its best to have atleast 100 or so balls. I bought some used balls off ebay pretty cheap.

$30.00 sounds pretty cheap. You can have a lot of amusement with this machine.

$30 won't be hard to recoup in fun! The kids have already been having some fun, but with only 15 balls it is kind of a pain to play. I am going to order more today. I found some 11mm bearings pretty cheap. I don't care if they have Chinese symbols on them and adding Pachinko to the search adds $10.

Sweet little machine. Still haven't bought one; would always pass them up because "the backs were missing".
