    Default Heiwa ball chute

    Does anyone know where I can find a lower ball chute plastic for my Heiwa machine?

    It's the lower section of the ball chute that connects to the upper ball tray, to the right of the brown piece. It's the only missing peice!

    Thanks

    It is a bit hard to tell. If you follow the chute coming down from the top of the picture, you can see where it offsets to accept another section of chute. Further down you can see a screw hole on each side of where the chute would go. The reason I know something goes here is that there were screws in the holes with the tabs to the chute. The chute has broken off at some point leaving the tabs and screws behind.

    can you retake the same picture for a bit of side angle.. something to show the depth of the piece your mising...

    would it have to be original??? if its just the last 4 or 5 inches ya could heat and bend some plexi to help ball travel...

    also if its the piece it appers to be... its only used during a ball dump... something not used allot during home play...

    You are correct it's for the ball dump and it would not be used often. I would still like to replace the part with an original. A last resort would be to use plexiglass or could even use a thin gauge of sheet metal. I would say the part is about 2 inches wide and and inch deep. I'll post a better pic early next week.
