Just looked up new ones and they’re kind of expensive for what they are. I need 36 of them… cheapest on eBay would run me like $70. Wondering if I could just spray paint these with stainless steel spray paint and they’d be okay. Some of them seem a little deteriorated on the bottoms but otherwise okay structurally.
I took a wire brush to remove loose paint and a good bit flaked off revealing more rust. Which tells me the paint isn’t really adhered anymore. Should I just remove it all and use a rust inhibitor to start fresh before repainting? I was gonna just scuff the paint and prime it but now I’m not sure. What would you guys do? It’s an old vending machine
I can find 5/8 locks but all the cam plates that turn are too long for my machine. I measured the old one that was on it and it’s like 35 mm or 1 3/8 inch. Any one have any leads?
I don’t think it’s an IP ban or they would have banned my original account. But I made a new one just for using Facebook marketplace that I didn’t want to mix up with my personal one and they banned it immediately. My original account is still in good standing, so I think that puts the IP ban rumor out the window right? I used a random throwaway email.
Got a few flat vends off marketplace and they need some tlc. What’s the best way to deep clean the coin mechs? I was thinking mineral spirits and simple green with a toothbrush and magic eraser.
Anything I should definitely NOT use?
Just bought three flat vending machines with no keys. Should I just drill the tube locks out and replace them? Seems like a pain to drag them into the locksmith and try to get a key made for them.
I can’t find anything about it online and it’s not on any ESD coin mech blueprint. It was on all 4 mechs in this machine when I got it. Flat vending.
The machine won’t work with it in.
Can anyone help me with this font? It’s sort of like Cheltenham Bold but not quite.
