Title: Vendo Coin Changer Project Post by: Jim on April 01, 2011, 04:44:09 am I'm working on a couple of projects and just decided to share...
This VCC case had a nice crack, a little weld and grinding; viola ! ! ! Good as New ! ! ! Although it's not true to authenticity, I had this powder coated... Just finished preping for a second coat which should yield a "glass-like" finish according to my powder-coater. We'll see... Title: Re: Vendo Coin Changer Project Post by: MoonDawg on April 01, 2011, 09:11:51 am I didn't know steel could crack like that without bending first. Anyway, it looks nice now. Curious to see if powdercoating can shine as smooth as paint.
Keep us posted! Title: Re: Vendo Coin Changer Project Post by: Larry on April 01, 2011, 09:21:56 am Looks real nice. Nice job.

Title: Re: Vendo Coin Changer Project Post by: Eric on April 01, 2011, 12:09:47 pm Nice job Jim... I've noticed on several old westinghouse coolers and others that crack at the rounded corner... must be the
gauge and/or quality of metal?.... looking good though!.... put this in the photo area under restorations... I have a insert exactly like the originals if you need one....
