Hi Guys!

Ive been busy moving house for the last 2 months...man have i got some crap! my garage had more stuff than in my house. It may sound cool to have 4 uprights and 4 tabletops, but when its time to move its a pain in the @#$

The stuff i have been throwing away would make some of you guys weep!
Anyways i have some leftover metalwork for my cocktails for sale on my website if anyone is interested.

Sorry, still no plans as yet...have to get the (very old) new house watertight and de-rat-infested.

-wetworks: get those pics posted, we want to see more hankins.
-Mod: I finally replied!

Bummer - I missed marcus's sale.

Does anybody know more about who originally manufactured the hankin cabs?

Regards,

Mod.

[Wetworks]

Well the Hankin cabs were distributed by "Leisure & Allied Industries" which I think are still around. I can also remember seeing a Hankin Pinball on the net too! I haven't come across any of these on international web pages so I presume the cabinets were made, assembled in Australia and boards,instructions,monitors came in a kit etc which

[DannyH]

man they look good. can you tell me if you have any detailed plans for this. Would love one of these bad boys

[mod]

Marcus,

Any update on the progress of your plans being available to the public? I'm really looking forward to them - even if they are just line drawings with dimensions.

Regards,

Mod.

Why does that Cocktail style look familiar   

Yes hankin tabletop is a good design.

Good Choice

Loadman,

Care to share in rough dimensions off your original baby? I have noticed a lot of interest from both myself and others in trying to find something to work with.

Certainly it would tie in well with you suggesting not to work off an original, but build your own from scractch.

No Problem,  I wish I had built one form scratch in hindsight. My friends and family have all the tools and  skills to help me. I was just too impatient at the time (4 years or so ago now)

I tell you what, if you send me/post a sketch/pic indicating what dimensions you want on it I will fill in the blanks and pass it on..   

[asalza]

Does anyone know if the plans/dimensions have been released yet? Cheers

I have the original glasstop that I am going to throw out if anyone wants it? Just a bit scratched

Loadman,

My apologies. I have been wiped out for the last week and a bit with a bout of the flu.

That sounds fantastic, I will try to put together some rough sketches, if you would still be will to provide some dimensions.

I don't know what you are apologising for..:-)

More than happy to do it,  I just can't draw to save myself hence my request... I will PM you my e-mail address for you to send the sketches to

I will start a new thread with the sketches with dimensions added rather than cling on to marcus.'s  thread here.

[zzsprade]

loadman sounds good. Good thinking!

I'll get to learn a few things along the way trying to knock them up.... may help out a few people.
