is it fun to play slots when there's no payoff? or are they just for decoration?
I like to fix and hack everything. I got a few game kings I enjoy. Video poker black jack, it’s a hard to get bar top arcade

Did you build it?
I see LOTS of R/C planes in the background.
Please post a few more pics!

Thanks!
it’s a repo from the mid 1990’s.
From what I remember they were made by jack prince.
Wish I had an original but they sell for crazy money!

Yes, with some help. Check out Dalek Asylum, it’s a Maker Space in Milwaukee. They have a goal of gathering the most Daleks ever. Project Dalek is another site for Dalek builders.
As far as the airplanes, I started a thread with a few pictures here:
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/model-aviation
Pinball and arcade machines kicked out the airplanes. They have their own room.
Quoted from chalkup8:What a cool retrospective neon that Fosters sign is.What a sought after item that would be in Australia for many.
Thank you !
I would have thought they would be common in Australia.
I bought it back around 1998 as a Xmas gift for my brother but decided to keep it and gave him something else instead.
I think it was $95.
I scored these 4 neons about a month ago. Got them for free after a local bar closed.
The miller lite needs to be repaired.
Looks like one of the 2 transformers is bad. It and the blue moon are pretty large at almost 2-1/2 ft tall.
I attached a pic of how it will look when fully operational.

(The wifey said it's MY room and I could put anything in it I wanted. Ahhh, the memories (or mammaries?).
Oh, and an Astro-Turf putting green that's 16 ft. long with a sunken cup in the concrete.
Both of these, just because.

I recently picked up This 1950’s $0.05 candy machine. Plan to stock it up with candy and leave a bunch of nickels on it for when we have parties. Let the kids grab whatever they want. Thought it would be kind of fun! Now I’m just waiting until we are allowed to have get togethers again.

What type of maintenance/cleaning does the cotton candy machine require?
Also what is it dispensed in ?
Quoted from LTG:No one has a coin op french fry machine ?
Great for the home.
Great to really stink the place up.
LTG : )
Pancake machine is nice too...
IMG_20160908_063559782_HDR (resized).jpgI have a piece of carpet from the Atlanta Marriot Marquis as probably my strangest thing in my game room. It's one of the five host hotels of Dragoncon, and really one of the coolest buildings in the USA.
The carpet has a strange history with the convention. Google Cult of the Marriot Carpet for some fun. Glad I have a piece.
And if you are an architecture fan google the hotel and other hotels by Mr Portman.

It actually has an arm
That lowers and scraps the bowl every 15 vends , but you just undo 3 wingnuts and the bowl Comes out and I clean it with hot water and dry . Takes about 10 mins total. It has a hopper in the back that I fill with cotton candy mix . When you push start the element heats up drops in the right amount and makes the best cotton candy . I’ll shoot a video so you can see how it works . The thing is a big hit at parties .

Ooooh, reminds me of the vast quantity of times I've said,"Get away from the car!, Get away from the car!".
Your ceiling is perfect for a lift.

I saw this at an auction about 5 years ago.
I thought it might go for a few hundred and was ready to bid.
It ended up selling for a high bid of $850 plus 10% buyers premium plus 6% Pa sales tax!!!

This is a stainless steel filter from one of the fuel pumps that fed the kero and liquid oxygen fuel mix of the Saturn V rocket
The Saturn V remains the most powerful machine ever built by man - 5 Rocketdyne F1 engines that produced 7.5 million pounds of thrust
The fuel pumps alone were 57,000 horsepower each!

Looks like what I saw went for about what they sell for.
Must be very time consuming and require lots of skill.
Very cool !

My PGA Team Challenge had to stay upstairs in the Clubhouse because it wouldn't fit through the door to the game room.
The unique must have for the Clubhouse is the ballwasher in the corner.

Very dangerous piece of equipment,I fell off of one at Myrtle Beach. 
Quoted from Spudgunman:I like to fix and hack everything. I got a few game kings I enjoy. Video poker black jack, it’s a hard to get bar top arcade
Agreed, I love my slant-top Game Maker. I rotate game roms every so often as I only have one machine.

I just ordered one of those online for myself.

Keeps stuff cold, works well. Careful installing the handle - be gentle and you'll be fine.
Too easy to strip the handle studs
Quoted from MT45:Very, very cool ball washer!

I bought the ballwasher about 8 years ago while at the 3M Championship with my wife. It is signed by 13 of the “super seniors” attending the tournament. My father had passed away just a month before. I had played golf with him since I was 3. The autographs were people he watched play golf during their careers in the 60s and 70s. So i bought it in memory of him. Surprisingly it was my wife that pushed me to actually do it.
