making a frankenstein machine

[ANGRY GARY]

i have a bucket full of spare parts like most people here do. looking at the nine pocket machine and how cool it is made me think. a dangerous thing to say the least. has anyone made a machine out of spare parts? i was thinking it would be cool to make a 10 pocket machine with a symmetrical design. i would keep the center pocket where it is due to the ease of adapting an existing linkage. design a cell around the pockets. maybe a goth design. lots of black and blue and silver.
has anyone done this before? if so can we see some pictures?

Yep I made one. Here are some pics of my Sokumara-Ankyo. Okumara-Yuki frame & mechanics; Sankyo background. Took a lot of engineering and guess work to make it all work right. (oh and time & testing)

all cool machines. but i was talking mre along the lines of adding pockets where there were none previously. which would then make the nail pattern different. like a vertical line of pockets on both sides of center. odd things like that.

I say "Go for it"... and post lots of pictures along the way.

okay, i think i will. but please do not expect the superb craftmanship displayed in other posts. be aware that at some points in this build you will avert your eyes and get chills up your spine from weak attempts at delicate woodworking skills. BE FOREWARNED!!!

I am building a pachinko machine, not tunnelling out of a prison! I will be using a spork, a pocket knife and a pointy stick.
