    Default Arrangeball - Janball

    Been a while since I've visited the forum and couldn't find the post with photos from my Janball, so here they are again.

    I've added more information on the freeplay circuit I made for it. There is a small push button switch on the side of the machine that will start a game and disable the coin pay-out. The "Janball" front panel light is off during freeplay and turns on when a coin is inserted.

    A delay to the solenoid activation was needed to prevent someone from playing for free until they got a winner, then inserting a coin to get the machine to pay out the previous win.

    I also added a lighted power switch on the left side.

    awesome job, but I'm not sure why you'd want to do it freeplay?
    My favourite part of arrangeballs is the kachunk of winning coins!
    WANTED: 10¥ games, pre-1950s machines, スマートボール (Smart Ball), payazzo/kronespill, Pickwick-style (~1905)
    if you have any of these in North America, let's talk.

    When I first got the game, I had young nephews that were just getting into money. I wanted them to be able to play and keep their winnings but the couple bucks I'd give them wouldn't last long. I thought a freeplay option might be good and it worked out great.

    I would put some dollar coins with the quarters in the payout tube to make it more exciting.

    Apologies for the double photos in the first post, don't know how to edit it.

    Here are a couple photos of the instructions with translation.
