Modifying non adjustable coin mechs
« on: October 13, 2006, 09:05:52 pm »
**I am not sure what is going to happen to the order of the pics as I post so I will reference them as I go.**

Ok, I bought a couple of coin doors(pic 1) and one came with without adjustable mechs(pic 2). Since I need to be able to use my tokens the No Adustment Required sounded like a challenge to me.

As you can see in Pic 3 a quarter fits just fine, but the tokens are just a little too big(pic 4). So out comes our little friend(pic 5).

The areas that need to be "adjusted" are circled in red in pic 6. Take off just a little at a time until you get the token to just fit. Pic 7 shows the new hacked mech. This thing is not going to win any beauty pagents put it now accepts tokens (pics 8 - 10)

I had to go back twice and remove a little more material to make them work consistantly, but hey, I saved a few $$$
