Vintage Columbia Slot Machine

Learn how the old mechanical slot machines work. How to repair, maintain and restore these collectors items. All Mechanical amusements repaired, wanted or se. Jackpot would you be able to send me the manual. Frank, I have one in the shop as well, got 98% of it working, the only problem remaining is the feature that pushes the nickle out of the carousel to send to the jackpot window. It appears that the coin is past the slot where it is ejected, thereby jamming the incoming coin into a slot that has a nickle already in it. Gameroom Show repairs your antique slot machines from the 1900s to the 1940s. We repair Jennings, Mills, Watling, Pace, and other antiqe mechanical slot machines. If your antique slot machine is just sitting around not working, call us to obtain a quote or e-mail us at repairs@gameroomshow.com.
