My Vintage Pachinko's

My first "real" post after my introduction. Thought I would share some photos of my two machines. The first is a Nishijin A i found a few years ago (have the play tray off the the side for cleaning). The other is a Daiichi I found for $29 the other week. Bummed that the play tray is missing a chunk out of it but figure I'll find some way of fixing it.

Nice machines!!

That Daiichi looks very interesting. Could you post a close up pic of the play field and center piece?

Here's the play field close up. Its a funny looking octopus.I know I've seen a photo of one similar on here but with a different cell pattern. Mopar, Is this what your talking about? still getting use to all the terms on here.

great octopie

yes thats was my question.. glad to see the parts on the back side

[Hobg05]

Here's a pic of the back. i did notice that there might be something missing for the ball lifter mech. when lever is brought back, the mech doesn't lower to lift the next ball. should there be a rod similar to the Nishijin A model?

. should there be a rod similar to the Nishijin A model?

if i understand your post the answer is YES..

post a close up pic of the back of the shooter please

[Hobg05]

Heres the back of the shooter. I'm thinking something is missing in this area but not sure.

[Moparformances]

yes the wire is missing

should look something like this... but your going to need some really stiff wire.. the factory wire is super hard to bend..
