    Default Inherited a vintage Sankyo

    My grandfather had a pachinko machine that I loved playing with 20 years or so ago. He gave it to me a few months ago and I'm finally finding the time to get around to looking more into it. My goal is to get it working and eventually do some restoration.

    I think it's a 1976 Sankyo. One of the jackpots says "New Poppy". I guess that's the model/name. Can anyone confirm/correct this?



    Apart from some cracks near the screw holes and one broken something, most of the machine seems to be in decent working order. The broken something has to do with the jackpot release. It seems that part of a cam/knob is broken off. It looks like this part is supposed to interact with the jackpot arm which prevents it from dumping unless a jackpot is supposed to pay out. I'm sure this is obvious to everyone here, though.

    This is the only part that is making the entire machine not work. I'm wondering what this part is called and where to buy a replacement. If a replacement can't be purchased (for a reasonable price), I was hoping someone had a picture of an intact one so I can try and create a model and 3D print one.

    Cheers!
