Quoted from pinhead52:You checked with Steve at PBR?
Hi thanks for your suggestion. Haven't asked Steve yet because I don't live in US and money transfer is very expensive. Hope to find a digital copy, or somebody who accepts Paypal payments. Thanks
Quoted from goldenboy232:Curious about this – just for my own education. If someone outside the US wants to buy a schematic, couldn’t a Pinsider in America purchase one from Steve, then get reimbursed via PayPal from the European Pinsider, then simply mail it to the European pencil? It doesn’t seem like it would be that expensive to do. But maybe I am completely ignorant of international mailing costs.
Yes that would work indeed. Some pinsiders have contacted me with that suggestion. Thanks everybody! But this morning a fellow collector in Europe replied and he will send the schematics.
Quoted from ajfclark:PBR use Transferwise now. It's pretty cheap and way, way easier than the previous systems they've used.
Hi, oh cool, I didn't know about that yet. My last order with PBR was a year ago. Happy to know they offer alternative payments. Thanks
Quoted from PinballFever:Does anyone have the part that attaches to the end of a 50's Williams ball lift rod with a cotter pin or is it a hard to get part?
I could make a copy for you in my metal workshop. I have some 50ties Williams pins myself. I live in Europe, which might be a bit impractical, but I can ship oversees.
Quoted from PinballFever:Much appreciated. I have the part shown in the photo with the yellow arrow pointing to it but need another one. I was thinking it would be easy to reproduce because of the simple design. I can imagine others here would be interested in a copy because I have a friend with a game missing that part too. The cotter pin probably falls out then that part slips off and gets lost. I'll try the local metal shops first then hit you up if need.
OK perfect, hope you'll find a way to have it produced. It things get difficult, don't hesitate to contact me again!
Quoted from Michigankid:I have a 10 cent one I'll send pics tomorrow
That would be great! Thanks
Looking for a 1962 Gottlieb Cover Girl gobble hole wire form (under playfield). The gobble holes were closed and bulls eye targets are put in place. I would like to return the playfield into original layout. The wire form is Y shaped and connects two gobble holes to outhole.
If anyone needs Chime Units, Pinball Atelier produces high quality Chime Units suitable for coils of different brands. The soundbox of this unit creates deep resonant tones and soft, delicate overtones. Well built, handmade product.

Quoted from Flipsteen:Looking for 4 inch bell (clam shell) typically found in Williams woodrails. PBR only has 3 and 5 inch bells. Thank you.
Hi Pinball Atelier sells bell units with 4" bells.
Bell4Bally2 (resized).jpgPinball Bell 4a (resized).jpgQuoted from jrpinball:Looking for a Bally bell assembly.
It's in the light box of many games of the era. This one is for a "The Wiggler". Not for me, but for a very well known and beloved estranged Pinsider who has asked me to post for him.
He's also looking for a backbox door for the same game.

Hi Pinball Atelier sells brand new 4'' bells units.
Bell4Bally3 (resized).jpgQuoted from tfduda:Bell shells for early Williams machines and early Gottlieb bell assembly wanted.
First, I am looking for bell shells with diameter of 4" and diameter somewhere between 2-1/2 and 2-7/8" for early 1950s Williams machines. These are for two missing bell shells from a Williams Nifty (1950) (that are shown below in photo of a machine that has them--photo from ipdb). I haven't been able to confirm the size of the smaller bell shell but based on the length of the armature on the stepper (and rough calculations of sizes from the photo), it looks like it has a diameter somewhere between 2-1/2 and 2-7/8" or so.

Second, I am also reviving an older post from a few years back for a 5" bell assembly for a 1953 Gottlieb Grand Slam as shown in the photo below (photo is from a 1954 Gottlieb that has the correct striker assembly in it).

Pinball Resource has a reproduction of a newer version of this assembly (see http://www.pbresource.com/news/gtb-b9359.jpg), but this newer assembly is too large for where it needs to go in Grand Slam (right behind the 10k stepper). The main difference between the one that was originally on Grand Slam and the reproduction is how they are mounted in the backbox--the newer one is mounted off the board (with four screws) while the correct one is mounted nearly flush to the board (with two screws).
Here's a photo (from ipdb) that shows the bell assembly in a Grand Slam.

Pinball Atelier sells brand new bell units with 3 and 4" bells. These units can even be equipped with 5" bells.
Bell4Bally1 (resized).jpgBell3Williams1 (resized).jpgQuoted from mikeincali:Looking for a complete williams chime unit. Thanks in advance
Pinball Atelier offers brand new chime units with Williams coils, soundbox and plug. Nice and deep sound!
ChimeWilliams2 (resized).jpgQuoted from cjzachmann: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.
