Welcome, I've noticed other EM games have their respective owners threads so I wanted to make one for this game and its variants. Where we share general info, repair tips, parts replacements/sourcing, and troubleshooting tips.

Brief Description
One or two players can play. You spin the disk on the right side to throw the horseshoe towards the pit on the other side of the glass. As it spins, the horseshoe lights up going across the glass. It can land in the pit for one point, a leaner for two, or a ringer for three. You get seven shots per game (adjustable), and if you get a ringer on the third or sixth shots, you get an extra toss. It is so simple and stupid, but it is fun.
