Ball Oversized Stop All Game Play

You will be wise to sticking with the Japanese gaming balls, they are 11mm in size, If you get American made steel balls they tend to be about 12mm. These will jam up your feed routes, causing you to get jamming problems during play.

Somethimes you can turn the machine upside down and rap softly to clear most jams, If this doesn't work you will need to start removing covers to clear it. alway take photos, so you can put it back together again.

So, if anyone has a jamming problem or something like it, be sure to consider this as a possibility.

I'll vouch for you, Arby. I was having trouble with payouts with my vintage machine. It was paying out fine after its initial restoration, but it came only with 200 engraved balls and I wanted more. I bought 500 plain ball bearings from a vendor on eBay, who advertised them for this purpose. I can't remember who the vendor was, because I bought them directly from him and not an auction. After I mixed them together, I noticed that I was having more jams. I just thought that it was because the machine was old. I recently thought about trying to fix the payout mechanism, and I separated the engraved balls out. What do you know, the engraved balls worked like a charm, and the new ones jammed every time. You can't spot the difference easily when you look at them, but the new ones are a smidge bigger. Those little differences add up when the balls are lined up in the payout hopper. Live and learn. I went the cheap route.

[d mowery]

[arbycoffee]

I stepped it out, out of town is 56 paces, a Pace is 31" times 56 is 1,736" devived by 12 = 144 1/2+ feet to out off town.

Please correct your smears on little arm pit of iowa, Least we not be in the hip pit, like hell, The last time the ground shook here was when Gurttie went dancing, The town concel voted the next day that she was in all future danceis to seat out, but she could sway to the music gentlay.

Now I am not saying Gurttie is the biggest woman in town, but in the summer time she give shade to half the town when she goes out. She is one of the nicest people, she would give you the shirt off her back, she did for those people in Ethiopa, there was enought cloth to make tents for everyone homeless and loin clothes for the men.

We thimk that the closest she ever been to a mans loin.
