Cor...you got a lot of money in your house... :lol: Nice job Chris and well done.... :dremel: I guess you have a shute sytem to make now for dropping the coins in and out...? |

Yes, absolutely! In reality the project has only just started! I've now got to mount the back board and front Perspex glass to the back board to stop the pennies falling out. Then most penny pushers have some interesting way of making the coins fall down more randomly - normally random pins inserted so they hit the pins on the way down and bounce around. I'll probably end up doing that. I did consider putting a small motor right in the centre of the back board so if coins hit this, they would be thrown about a bit - not sure how well that would work. A really important question for all your creative type out there... A prize for a good name/title for the machine. My children are called jack and Ella so perhaps something incorporating that? Or even Raynerd? Any suggestions welcome! I'm going to have a vinyl sticker made and stick this to the backboard! |

The Rayn-Er-Shine Jack-pot Ella-mantor. aka The Rain-or-Shine Jackpot Eliminator kinda fits with the windshield wiper theme, too |

Great stuff Chris. :clap: I think you've got the forum captivated with this one. I don't know how you manage to make so much progress with two small children around, but keep it up. Ella-va Jack-pot Gary |
