How to bring Japan home
with you without all the
sultry summer heat!

Here are my Pachislo machines...

I just recently
got into these and I love em!  Fun for hours!!!!

This is me in front of my Wal-Mart $40 dollar stand
everyone said was too short...  I guess it just matters
what chair you use!

The Game on the stand alone..... Without my ugly Keister there...

Now here is my Pachislos resting in the theater... 
Notice the Gamera is getting ready to dish out a
Bonus Level...  Not only that there is a Gamera
figure as well as the new movies box set on DVD...
Oh yeah the Rai Rai Goku is next to it....

Looks nice huh!

Now for the pachinko's

These are my Pachinko's I am in the process of finishing
off the poker room just behind that wall so the wall isn't
dry walled around the pachinko's yet.  But soon will be!

See the feed hoppers I made out of a drywall box
cut in half!  They don't look even but that is the perspective
of the camera angle...

Crummy pic but you get the idea... These will eventually
mount to the drywall when I put it in.

This is the inside of the hopper.  I made L brackets
to hold the drywall box on and then made the slanted
ball directional plate.  This was all done out of
ductwork from Home Depot...   You can see it all feeds
into a right angle ductwork piece.

This is the underside of the hopper.  I added some
extension to the bottom of the right angle duct and
then bent it to match up exactly with the load tray
on the pachinko machine.  I did this one while the
machine was mounted into the wall!

Then all the balls that fall through like the ones
when you lose and pretty much any ball that can
fall out the back of the machine gets caught in my
aluminum screen web and funneled out the front.
That silver crap is ductwork tape.  Love that stuff!

Weee I just pushed the flush button here comes 3000+ balls!

Here is the playfield of my newly restored
"Pachinko Rain" machine




Here is the animation up close.  There is a little guy
that pops up behind him and the umbrella raises up.
When this happens the balls get caught on top of the
spinning umbrella.  The dice slide out every so often
to funnel more balls in.




This is a pic of my Sumo themed machine.  Basically you
start the jackpot by matching 3 numbers.  Then your young
sumo character will engage in 12 fights.  You have
crosshairs that move back and forth over opponent Sumos
faces.  Get a ball in the big opening to strike the sumo.  Get
three hits to the face and move on to the next wrestler.  Each
hit nets you 15 balls.  I have Jackpotted this one with 3000
balls in the hopper and still ran out!

There you have it my Pachi collection so far!
