Gladiator 9 Drums with interesting custom ball lifter

[hanabi]

Here's a Gladiator 9 Drums for sale on ebay, and it's interesting because it comes with it's own custom ball lifter system

I thought our members may be interested in seeing the pics of the set-up

Gladiator PACHINKO Machine with Custom Ball Retrieval on eBay (end time 13-Dec-10 0621 GMT)

It's located in Canada and has a start of $50 but it has a reserve price

I saw that listing also...I'm wondering what the Reserve Price will turn out to be. Its a pretty sharp looking unit overall. Wish my 9 Drums was set up like that. I'm guessing the shipping/freight alone will be pretty costly from Canada.

Can some one that is a member here that can build things, buy this so they can copy the lifter and start making a ball lifter like this one.

wonder if the balls lifter is twice as fast as the orange one, or run slower...

I thought that lifter looked familiar for some reason..Doc sold one a few years ago..

Here are some threads on them..

I remember Mr. King in Canada because in 2002 I bought one of his Satomi Grand Prix Computer Pachinko Coin Ops the customs fee was around $70 for it back then . He wasn't offering the ball liftrer back then or they were working on it .
