A pal who uses Facebook has put me onto this ACE-style E/M three-reeler with a top-box shooting-gallery feature. It's a lot like Ring-a-Bell, but I think it is an original machine, and not converted from an ACE. It does have a second relay diagram behind the Cash Shot one, which shows a slightly different game, called Crack Shot. A Kenmar conversion on an original Kenmar game, perhaps. It's interesting for its counters: The usual 3-digit one for credits, but for shots at the target feature, a Nixie tube, no less! Must get this one working.

There must of been an emptier for this back in the 90's. I played one of these in a quicksilvers, on bold street Liverpool. Not a sausage for 20 quid, then I land a pity 2.40 repeat. Which didn't. Kind of put me off this machine for life, I'm looking forward to the download, so I can give it a good thrasin' Office Space style. Statto.

Excellent, thanks ever so much for these amazing looking layouts Vectra!

I think there is one but a very old one it’s in a silver trim cabinet, could do with a new updated version.

hello eveyone

Dont know much about the psu s but i think the voltage trim pots go down from old age so worth checking them .

Now back to finding a fault, put the mechs back and the mars mech light won’t work. Shows 3v not 12v?? Off to work so can’t play but anyone know what this may be? All other bulbs spot on just the coin mech one. 2p mech bulbs on no issues.

I am sick mate, still got mental issues with the old PCP 😂😂 hope your well mate, been too long. Can’t help doing up PCP machines, mrs not so keen on the overspray in the dining room mind 😂😂😂

Yes no problem, has it not been done?

If Graham can't help I might have a spare cart too mike

Looks great barrie .Nice to see a vid if you get chance

Sick....

Looking good 👍. Maybe when it’s all done you could post some hi res pictures for emulation purposes.

Paint done, now leaving to dry for a few days 👍👍👍

No mate, it had black surrounds from day one before I touched it not the gold. No hints inside though just the pcp paperwork. I’ll check looms when i put the buttons back to see if it has any tags from the original. 😎😎

Any idea what JPM machine it started out as ?? Statto

Wow..thats the one. Thanks very much. Very rare machine, with some weird pay table setup. So the jackpot was 27 ways, and the red / blue sevens where a fiver, you'd think blue would be 4 quid, and red 5quid. AND no nudges.. But I digress..has anybody else seen this machine?? Statto

Oh and the hidden bonus that no one seemed to have was in the bottom cash tray!

Onwards today and good weather. Sanding and undercoating started……

Made up some brass support posts to replace previously used spares - made a few extra if anyone else missing the odd one or two ... Original spec 1/4"/4BA hex, faced both ends in lathe then centre marked, drilled and finally tapped by hand to take original 6BA cheese-head screws as per factory. Approx. 6 pairs available, £6pr posted. (be doing some of the round corner posts next week - will add details when done)

Here go the grey brain cells. This cabinet did have a trick with the pull handle, not 100% sure what that was, and this gimmick was soon turned off. However...There was another project machine in this cabinet. 6 Quid jackpot, and there was a 27 way win, which had X shaped symbols, that wasn't a jackpot win, but 4-5 quid Can't remember the name, seen it once in Alladins Cave Liverpool. And sadly, the machine, the arcade, and myself have all left the city. Statto

hi looking for the mpu5 happy campers flash file on £35 jackpot have tried to change the emulated version by stakes and prize set up but comes up invalid so possible its same file but may need different pic chip or the file cheers toddy
