Slot Mechanism Restoration (Slot Machine Part 2)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 січ 2021
- Well, I finally finished editing this restoration. I tried to cut it down as much as possible and it still ended up being almost an hour long, so I decided to split it into another (short) third slot machine restoration part. The third part will only cover the restoration of the reel mechanism (the part that spins) and show the process of creating the new reel paper in slightly more detail.
These things take a really long time to edit, but I apologize that it took me so long. I've been spending a lot of time in the shop the past couple months working on creating more Jeep content. That stuff should be coming soon™. I've got 4 Jeep restoration videos recorded and will be releasing them 1 by 1 as soon as they are done being edited.

Now to wait for part 3 ...
This is better pandemic entertainment than anything Netflix has come up with.
Part 3?
I'm thinking about making a video explaining how this thing actually works. Let me know if you'd like to see something like that.
Here's the video explaining how it works posted on patreon: www.patreon.com/posts/47454715
Очень странно,что у тебя нет гальванической ванны для покрытия деталей цинком.
Definitely. The engineering that went into that is astonishing.
Yes. I have some of these. Still dont understand the brakes or the springs on the timer.
Yes, please!
Yes please!
Mad respect, sir. With all those moving parts I'd lose my mind trying to put this back together, let alone fix it once I took it apart.
If only he had some way of possibly taking pictures or video of it so he could go back and see how it all goes back together...
@@HermanMunster420 While that's true, I don't know if just watching the disassembly video would be enough for most people to put this thing back together. Finding the right part out of thousands, the correct order, whether the part needs to be cleaned or greased, which spring, how tight...

Wow! This machine is waaaaay too sophisticated for what it actually does.
1000% over engineered. Especially the jackpot mechanism... For the horde
@@RestorationStation For the Horde!!! Majestic work as always btw.
Agreed, it is a work of art. I hate to think how much time was spent designing the thing looking at the number of component parts and the tolerances used.
They are probably glad that video slots have taken over.
For the Horde!
There's something soothing about the clickety-clack of disassembly and re-assembly.
Ikr 😂🤣✌🏼👍🏼💙💯💯
I’m a graduate of the Las Vegas Gaming and Technical School. We learned on the old Bally 1090’s. But this is on a whole other level. Mad respect to you and your ability. Fantastic job and mesmerizing video.
Idk how but this guy is a engineer if I was taking the type of machines apart it would take me 6 hours to put that back together
I like how you can tell this device was serviced a lot in its time compared to other machines
The idea of giving an old object a new life is great. keep up the good work!
This is an absolute masterclass in slot machine repair. I will be coming down as I am local to get my Chicago Club House Trade Stimulator repaired.
The fact you could keep track of all the parts amazes me
I 🤔 the same then I 💭 again . He must be watching his own recordings of disassembly.
You have to be a total genius to take this machine apart and be able to put back every nut, screw, thing a-ma jig back where it belongs. I went into tilt just watching the video!!!
Let’s see, about a thousand moving parts, who knows how many cotter pins, dealing with worn and/or missing parts, then assembly that has to be done in the right sequence. Piece of cake, no problem. LOL Incredible work!
The little clicking and ratcheting sounds as you manipulate the mechanism are so satisfying.
I've been waiting for this with great anticipation, and the complexity of the mechanism does not disappoint. What a treat to see it in more detail!
Machines like these are truly mechanical engineering at its finest. The fact that it was able to register certain combinations without a computer never dawned on me until seeing you take it apart
This is the most complicated restoration project i've ever seen. LOL!
Yes I agree.will stick to my can of WD-40.😂
I like the detailed work and skill to get it working again. I especially like the comic relief when a small part escapes and shoots offscreen and almost inaudibly hits the ground in the distance.
14:00 I would just love to have that sitting on my desk except the top and bottom pieces are clear plastic so I can see the gears, and the top whirly bit is made of the same metal as the gears.
Wow, that is amazing how you remember which parts belong where, not to mention the good job you did cleaning all those parts. Now that is what I call great skill putting all those parts back together again. Great work.
Very nice watching you bring this old girl back to life. Thanks for filming, editing... and of course the restore.
Really enjoyed watching this. Very clever and patient. Getting all those parts back together again - brilliant! Thank you.
I rebuilt an old Singer sewing machine one time but you're on a whole different level. What a memory!
The amount of knowledge required to restore this machine is impressive. That is the most interesting restoration video I have seen so far. Good job!
This is not a restoration/ refurbishing for the faint of heart or for a weak mind. A component with subcomponents that have components with lots of pieces parts. The person/ people that designed that must have had indigestion from a late night pizza party and they couldn’t sleep all night and decided to build a puzzle. Really excellent restoration/ refurbishing work sir, enjoyed it, thank you.
It’s incredible to see that this machine is entirely mechanical- what a work of engineering!
This is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen
what a wonderful piece of clockwerk and non electrical devices I could see someone going down the rabbit hole polishing , plating, blueing,painting. then build a glass case or molded clear epoxy case . you are talented in this ones assembly . thank you for the video!
How anyone can remember how all that goes back together is beyond me.
You sir, are a super mind.
Been waiting for this, my parents have one like this. It doesn't work last time I checked. I remember when they cracked it open about 20 years ago. A bunch of Indian Head Nickels came pouring out. Great restoration, I hope to restore theirs in the future!
If I were to attempt this, there would be ‘orphaned’ parts leftover afterwards!😅
Me: “hey I’ll bet it would be fun to take that apart and put it back together”
Me after the first half of Part 1: “uhhhhh...”
& what’s more astonishing is that someone designed this years ago, that’s even more mind bending
Don’t worry about the delay. The attention to detail shows. This is a complex mechanism. It’s really cool what you can build with just gears, sprockets, cams, wheels, tangs, springs, levers, and a bunch of screws. The design of these was state of the art back in its day. I wonder what a new one cost and how long it took to get a return on your investment. Thanks for filming and posting these!
First time I understood that pinball machines are mostly mechanical marvels, my mind was blown.
You are a very amazing person who can actually rebuild and reclaim an old slot machine nice job beautiful work I like your video very much it was very interesting to watch how a slot machine works thank you
This is one of the best restoration videos ever!
It's amazing how the inventors of such things really planned it all out so intricately.
I don't know what I admire more... the skill or the patience.
I have neither.
I know you give a lot of credit to your camera for filming the taking apart to assist with the putting it all back together again; but, I have to say that it takes a genuinely special talent to accomplish what you have. I couldn't do this even if each part got up and told me exactly where to put it and when! Best wishes and good health my friend.
The amount of spring nuts and bolts on that thing wow. I am absolutely amazed at this whole process and the talent you have.
Finally
My uncle restored slot machines in the 50's and 60's, he had two penny machines on his bar that my brother and I loved to play when we were kids. Just realized that the RS on your slot machine was my uncle's initials.
Aw, hell no! Never would I ever! Kudos for the obvious expertise and skill!
This guy did impressive work, take a second to think about the mind that actually designed and built this complex machine.
There is NO WAY that I wouldn't have extra screws remaining if I attempted this... you sir are a master
You are good man!!! Hats off to you. You have more patients than I could ever muster.
patience
@@shawbros Thanks, didn't catch that. You must be an english teacher. Best regards
It amazes me how you remember how to put it back together
FYI - I would happily watch the full unedited mini-series version of this. So cool!
My favorite part of this whole video is the sand blasting and spray painting. I would watch a whole video of just those things. Lol
Yup, I've been waiting for this part with notification on !
15:01 "These work fine as well, but they're ugly."
that made me chuckle lmfao
Oh, it's over already? Outstanding. Thank you for allowing us into your shop to watch you work on this complicated project. See you again soon, yes?
I've been looking forward to this.
Ditto. Been waiting for Part Deux.
yes me too
Same
What a detailed project. I enjoyed watching it.
The kid sure does know what he’s doing, what a great job!
What a simple construction these slot-machines 😳
I'm impressed that you didn't have stuff leftover after reassembled it 🤔 Very interesting to watch ❤️
WOW, it looks like a puzzle when disassembled! Very cool and fantastic work. 👏👏👏
I’d have had no trouble dismantling this… reassembly would involved the recycle bin however.
Amazing stuff. Can’t wait to see the finished product.
Seriously, how come you know all that stuff about.. well, EVERYTHING?! Respect ✊🏻
i am so glad you did this video showing all that is involved i bought a mech so dirty dripping with old grease i love seeing every step by step and it`s so clear i can tell what goes where thanks
My gawd man! It would have taken me light years to restore this device. At warp speed eight I am disinclined to tackle this job.
Thanks for showing the whole rebuild. Great job.
It blows my mind just imagining someone designing this machine. Amazingly intricate for the time period which I am guessing was in the 40s or 50s. Not unlike a watch from back then too. Dude you have some serious patience and determination not to mention attention to details. Great stuff !!
The machine is from 1933, according to the first video.
Though there are patents on it filed in 1934.
Runs like clockwork like a lot of stuff pre-computer era - reminds me of some of the old bowling pinsetters. Those machines couldn't miss a beat or you'd have angry punters out for blood.
What a complicated nightmare! I'd be terrified that I would forget where everything goes after taking it apart. Awesome work!
Addiction is great motivator to invent something
This is amazing. Expertly done and entertaining throughout.
Oooh I forgot about this! Glad I saw the notification!
So complex machine. But old is gold.📺
Love love love the complexity of this machine
And you telling me this is just a TOY 🤯😳🤯😳🤯😳
Watching this makes me think of the enormous complexity of these machines. Someone had to sit at a drafting table and put the design to paper. I cannot imagine how long it would have taken back in the 1930s to design, engineer and build a machine like this. Amazing engineering. I also wonder if the designers could have envisioned that nearly 100 years later, someone would be restoring it.
Sir, what kind of camera do you use to shoot video?
Panasonic GH5. 4k/60hz
@@RestorationStation Thank you, you make beautiful videos👍 What lens do you use for this camera?!
Thanks!
So much work ... Talent is here , in your hands ... Awesome 👍.
Excellent content as always! Finally Part 2!
Very impressive Sir. I could not have done it. My hat is off to you!
Soooo been waiting for this!!! This guy is literally amazing.
@Aidan your pfp lmao
@@seanrplaysmc3167 ole reliable, been my pfp since 2011
@@abou824 do u use discord? Cause your pfp here is the same as mine on discord lol
And to think, someone engineered these things. They designed it. That impresses the hell out of me now, looking at every single little part and mechanism.
A big salute to the creator of this machine
How on earth do you remember where everything goes? I've been a vehicle mechanic for over 40 years and rebuilt dozens of engines and gearboxes, but I'd be hard pressed to strip and rebuild one of these. Just goes to show how much old technology is out there. Really enjoyed the videos.
Yaay! I've been waiting for this for a long time by now, so happy with this video!
Love the video!! It is really neat how you do not speak a word. But you do subtitle where needed. I also like all the little noises of the parts coming off and going on. Thanks again for the video!!!
Real fascinating to see this complex mechanical mechanism and its restauration great stuff!
This video was worth the wait! You truly have talent with your craft.
No way I could remember all of that! Very impressive!!!
The brown substance on each part that is cleaned off is tar from exhaled cigarette smoak. As an airline mechanic back in the 1970s it was easy to find a pressurization leak. We just looked for the tar stains. Then they outlawed smoking and airplane maintenance cost went down 7%.
How on earth do you remember where all the parts go. Even recording it would be difficult. Much respect, I love slot machines, and the old fruit machines are the best, IMO. Great work. 👍
Awesome skills mate, getting all those parts back in the right spots is an outstanding effort, waiting for part 3 with great anticipation!
Imagine how much easier it would be if he had filmed taking it apart so he could go back and see how it goes back together.
You did such an amazing job on this!
Mechanical nightmare. Amazing the engineering that went into this.
It's so beautiful! I'm waiting this!!! :)))
Really impressive. Thanks for an amazing video.
Woooohooooo!!!!! Been w8ing 4 this day
I was lost by the first 20 seconds, it would have forever remained a box of parts in my shed.
wow! that machine is more complicated than a swiss watch!, imagine the person who invented it had to figure it out all in his head without any kind of computer assist, must have been some kind of genious.
Devil is into details.
And into SPRINGS. And frickin' cotter pins.
Amazing how much engineering went into a "game of chance" Nice vid thanks
Exellent work! best regards from Bahia Blanca, Argentina.
So many parts, unbelievable
Absolutely amazing! I can take things apart but I can't ever put them back together.
What minds went into making one of these. Wow!
