Quoted from gpa_joe:I am looking for one of these for a 1947 United Utah. It’s a contact wire for a pop bumper. The Utah uses this instead of the typical spoons and plastic skirts.
We converted some of these games go the standard skirts etc. at the VFW. Just another option for you.
I’m looking for a flipper pushbutton for my Bally Wizard. The end of the button has a broken piece and the c-clamp that keeps the button in place keeps falling off. Marco doesn’t have them in stock and I’ve been told they are hard to come by. If anybody has a spare flipper pushbutton for a Bally EM or know how to find one I’d appreciate it.

Quoted from pinhead52:I need... either a source to buy Williams apron screws, #6 2 1/4 long. Cant seem to find #6 in that length... or can somebody send me 3 or 4? Im missing one and 2 or 3 others are pretty badly corroded

I thought the screws where a #7. OSCH hardware had #7 wood screws many years ago.

Here is 2-1/2" slotted head
I'm looking for Bally Part #P-2289-1 "End Plate On/Off Switch". I'm restoring a 1976 EM Night Rider but this part can also be found on a bunch of other early Bally solid states.
I've tried Marco's, Action Pinball, PBL, and Planetary Pinball. All are either Out of Stock, Discontinued, or don't show any listings at all. Got quick email reply from Lou at PBR this morning saying "not available", unfortunately.
Can anyone help?

Quoted from Billc479:Mathazar - I bought a piece of flat metal stock, and drilled and cut my own. I had a bigger problem finding a switch that I liked.
If I had the tools to work with metal, I'd do the same. The extent of my metal working capabilities is brutally hacking off bits with my Dremel. No precision skills there. 
What did you finally go with for a switch? I picked this up for $5....seems to work fine.

I have attempted to make a replacement from a paper clip. Not sure about the metallurgy or conductivity. Was considering using some copper also. Anyone have suggestions?

While not experienced with your specific application, I've had good results using the spring steel from those "before you dig" flags for water/gas/electric, replicating ball gates on pf. Holds bends well without fatigue, unlike paperclip stock. Maybe this gives you additional ideas.

Drop those in Evaporust for a day, dry & clean, put them in a drill, spin first in a green scotch pad, then in 0000 steel wool. They will already look like brand new, then finish off with mothers mag while still in drill. Other than the evapo soak, should take you five minutes to spruce those screws up.
Check out this thread I posted years ago.

Got a set from the boys down under years ago. Sadly, none of their artwork is available.
I found this sitting on a table at NW Pinball and Arcade show. Beautiful piece of precision engineering. I tried to find the owner/maker of this zipper flipper assembly several times with no luck. If you need one for your Bally game this unit appears like it would slide right in.

That is Brian's who has the multi machine there with Voltron playfield in it yesterday. He has a Facebook page documenting his builds including that.

Looking for:
An original instruction card for Gottlieb Capt. Card
Small checkered plastic for Gottlieb Spin Out
I just brought home a project. 1973 Williams Travel Time. Most everything is there. I have almost all the coin door parts through a lucky score, and will be ordering a new back glass. What I could use is a set of decent legs as these are too tall. And is a chime unit. This one is the sorriest broken thing. Broken chimes, broken tabs, burned out coil that melted the plunger, missing plunger. As a metal worker I’m debating fixing it… but I’m not sure it’s worth the time after all the parts and shop time.
The complete chime unit in the photos is from my 75 Little Chief for comparison.

I still need
the correct legs
a coin box
shooter housing with the W, a metal one, this broken tan plastic one is SO Ugly!
If anyone has some inexpensive one’s laying around.

Hi Cjzachmann, This is a picture of the Universal Chime Unit with Williams coils. Best, Rob
ChimeWilliams2 (resized).jpgLooking for 2 of the beehive lamp socket covers that go into the lower corners of the playfield on Sitting Pretty
(similar to PRB light cylinder that are out of stock https://www.pbresource.com/plastic/gtb-double.jpg )
And also looking for decals for the roto unit (PBR out - no plans to redo them)
thanks

Will any of these help?
The beehive is yellow, sorry.
Need a pair of another color and shape?
20230610_094121.jpgLooking for a late 1940's shooter rod for a Chicago Coin machine. The rod is 5/16" in diameter (instead of the standard 3/8") and approximately 8" long (from outside/back end of knob to end of threaded area of rod--or so I guess given that mine is missing about 90% of the threaded portion). An image of one from the 1948 CCM catalog is shown below.
CCM_shooter_rod (resized).pngQuoted from Twindad2:Looking for 2 North Star rollover guides...2 1/2 inch hole to hole, double-sided, marbelized, green and yellow. Will take cracked. Mine have missing chunks.
Just trying to pretty up my North Star. Thanks in advance.
Yeah, those are pretty much unobtanium in the original marbled plastic.
Your best bet is to buy new repros from PBR. And even then, you will have to trim the edges that are exposed to the pop bumpers as they will break them again, similar to how they came from the factory on that game.
Quoted from phillyfan64:Another attempt to get these Upper Deck pitch and bat buttons. Want to get the originals chromed but don’t want to be without the game for 3 months. I got scammed on Mr Pinball. Hopefully better luck here!

my plater takes about 4 weeks to turn around stuff (I had him do these buttons on a game). Look up Al's plaing, Ft Worth TX

Thanks. I’ll look him up. I have a local guy that I’m going to check with this week. He’s been recommended also.

Let me know how it goes with your local guy (I'm assuming New Jersey). I'm in Maryland and am looking for someone in driving distance.
