Title: VMC-33 Post by: johnnyfizz on January 17, 2009, 03:46:51 pm What is the availability of a used bottle drum for this model and would it be the same as a 3D-33? What could I expect to pay for one.Thank's guy's for any info.
Title: Re: VMC-33 Post by: MoonDawg on January 17, 2009, 05:45:02 pm All 33's and 27's use the same drum. Beware that you may also be missing rollers
and ratcheting index too.(See pic below) I rarely see a drum for sale but complete machines sell for $300 to $400. Buy one, steal the drum and part out the rest. Title: Re: VMC-33 Post by: collecture on January 17, 2009, 06:10:42 pm It is either the upper rollers or the lower rollers - I can't remember - but they use different rollers. One pair is the same, but the other is different (smaller). They are even different part numbers in the user manual/parts list. It could be a difference between the 33 and 27 or it could be a difference between the 27/33 split door models and the 3D - I'll try to verify in the next day or so.
The drum is the same as Glen said. The coin mech for a 27/33 split door model IS different than the 33-3D model coin mech - I know that for sure!

Title: Re: VMC-33 Post by: ducatihummer on January 19, 2009, 10:32:19 am Johnny, if you end up getting it and need the drum let me know. I have a 33 that should have everything inside. I just haven't opened it yet. The shell is rusted pretty good so I was going to make it into something since I don't think it can be salvaged. Let me know if good price and all the parts you might need...

Title: Re: VMC-33 Post by: ELC on February 16, 2009, 10:24:29 pm I have the lower rollers and roller tray. I also have a ton of other VMC 33 & 27 parts forsale.
