Eric Title: Another person into soda machines Post by: dr galaga on January 31, 2006, 06:02:24 pm Welcome. Head over to the Coin Mechanism section. There is a free play switch that you can build so you don't have to get a coin mech. if you don't want to.
Oh oh. Markito is going to be all over this new guy (for putting stuff on top of his machine)!

Keep us posted on your progress and if you ever have any questions please feel free to ask. As for a coin mech you just need any 115-117 volt single price coin mech. You can get them on ebay. The most popular are the Coinco s75-9800.

Have not need thier services as of late. Thanks for the tip on the free play I'll have it hooked up by tomorow and use the coin return to press the button on the inside. Oh and I removed the cluter from the top of the machine... LOL....sorry Markito! You all have me worried about if you buy one there will be more to fallow, LOLOL
any body have any leads on a new lock for a Vendo-90...I had to drill this one out? She is not in bad shape, the pics make it look better than it is. It will need to be blasted. There are three colours, pepsi blue then purple, and as you can see red. It will need a real good clean on the inside aswell........ Title: Another person into soda machines Post by: dr galaga on January 31, 2006, 08:59:49 pm Yes...may more will follow. You better watch out or your signature will read "Just tryin to build a cool garage for my Soda Machines and the Hot Rod has to sit outside"

You'll find that all of the people here are super-helpful and great to chat with. The knowledge base here is extremely strong. I will let Harrison (Mr. Collins) know that you appreciate his manual.

Save the sandblast and painting for your NEXT machine. This one will look just fine with very little more work. Welcome. |
