    Default Modern machine in Vintage case

    The electric shooter on my Taiyo Elec, "Hit It, Hit It" machine quit working. I believe something inside broke.

    So, I was going to tear the machine down and save whatever parts I could. Then I thought what if I put it in a vintage frame and use a manual shooter.

    So that's what I did.

    (The machine is Full Cycle and you keep score, using a Gaku counter)

    Just had a couple of things to finish up.

    The original speaker fit in a round plastic housing in the bottom of the original frame. There was no way to mount it in the vintage frame, so it was just laying inside the frame. So, I went hunting at the Goodwill Store and got a iHome for $2 and used a speaker from it. I drilled a hole in the bottom/front of the frame and screwed the speaker in. I also used the speaker grill cover from it and screwed it to the outside of the frame.

    Also, added a LED light strip to light the playfield.
