Hi to everyone, please help me wit some photos

A bold and clever solution...

... today I checked the long spring to find out how to clean it. Inside the spring I detected a piece of folded paper. I unfolded it between two pieces of glass, to save it and take photos. This is what it looks like:

The note seems to come from a newspaper with some kind of business news and is cut precisely. Was it simply to prevent noises from the spring or is a a hidden message? Has anyone found something similar?

Very cool!!

I think I remember others posting about this before!!

I believe it is part of a treasure map that leads to the Emperors hidden gold!!

... maybe you are right, hopefully it is not too much gold - that would be bad for my character ;-)

its a muffler to keep the spring from making excessive noise

No really, that's why its there

It's also a Good Luck totem possibly for the Parlor to win more than the player . . . .

Don't believe what they say!! They just want less competition!!

... I am totally with the treasure theory. When I finally know where to search and have no success I will try a "time warp" to find the right spot: "Its just a jump to the left - and then a step to the right" ...

The center attraction is made of several parts that are glued together. It has plastic and metal parts to clean. The metal springs cannot be cleaned easy in place but they can be loosened on one side. Unfortunately they cannot be taken out without risks of destroying plastic parts.

My idea to clean the springs (photos):

- lift the nail that holds the spring on the backside with a needle loosens the spring.
- the spring can be bent to the front, mostly 90% is now outside and can be cleaned mechanically.
- to get the spring back I use a fishing line, so I can pull the spring back through the hole in the backside and fix it again.

Thank you again for the community for help and encouragement. I will take a break in restoration and be back in some weeks.

Oh Joy

The old Heiwa machine will work again ...

A big thank you to @SibSr who printed the missing parts and sent them to me last week.

This is the most kind forum I know - having experience in a German brewer forum, I learned this well. You get all help here, even if you make spelling mistakes or the answer is already somewhere in the forum - no reproaches at all. This is the kindness I was looking for.

Now to SibSr 's excellent work: The parts fit exactly and will bring my machine back to life - if I finally manage to clean and rebuild the whole machine. I redesigned some other missing parts for this specific HEIWA machine. I will post these 3d printer parts (when they are finally tested) by the end of the year - my chance to give something back.
