1933 Mechanical Slot Machine Restoration (Slot Machine Part 1)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 окт 2020
- About 6 months ago I got a call from someone who wanted me to restore something for them. Obviously I couldn't say no to a piece like this, but it was pretty daunting. It took me months to finish restoring this slot machine, but it's finally done and edited.
Anyway, I learned a lot restoring this old slot machine and I'm really happy I took this challenging project on. There will be a part 2 coming up pretty soon here that focuses solely on the restoration of the mechanism inside. It turned out to be way too much to cram into one video. I have almost 1tb of footage stored on my server for this project alone...

The fun thing about owning one of these is you can fuel your gambling addiction without losing money.
Also a good way of storing change so no one steals it and to hide valuables
@@killerproductions8629 genius idea. Hook me up with a slot machine
That idea is so genius, it should be illegal.
The best piggy bank😂
Except that you don’t get anything
The quiet place, no sounds other than the tools and parts, the lack of crazy or random movements, no rush, is like the time is frozen in your video. All this bring peace to mind. Thank you for this amazing video.
this phenomenon is called "bob ross vibes"
there should be a great effort to edit a video this good, it's truly amazing
I just want to know how many times he had to replay his video to see where every single tiny little screw and piece had to go back together lol. I’m guessing he had to replay it in the hundreds 😅. Jesus this was so satisfying to watch. You’re incredible my dude
You're right, "every single tiny little screw and piece had to go back together" as intended for the machine to function properly. I love technical videos like this b/c it points out one clear fact; that in some arenas you can't simply invent your own means, and/or ignore the truth w/o consequences. That fact is no more *true and crucial* than the eternal consequences of ignoring Gods warnings re: mocking Jesus Christ. I hope you consider this "truth."
@@DanKoning777 he was just telling jesus how satisfying the video was, im sure jesus likes restoration vids too
Maybe he had a manual? The amount of parts in this thing is mind boggling!
How I feel when I take a pen apart and put it back together successfully:
Yeah. Sounds like your in my league.
🤣👍
How I feel when I take apart a rubix cube and put it back together
Hahaha. Yes. Me too
I can't even do that without making it not work
@@Dougretseverything You start with easy works first, like breathing and walking at the same time, before you get your hands on a pen
The fact that he successfully disassembled and then reassembled this thing is amazing. Great job.
that was insane remembering all of these parts
He watched the same video you just did so he could put it back together. 😆
pretty sure I would end up losing some essential part down the floorboards
Make a video and reverse play on each step
ddoyle11 I want him to take a look at my CHECK ENGINE light.
The engineering that went into inventing and subsequently improving this over the years decades ago is mind blowing!! We cant even make an IKEA stool without cliffs notes!
I was thinking samething, its amazing! :O
It is harder to write assembly instructions than it is to design the thing that you are writing the instructions for.
Slot attendant here. It was pretty cool to see what has been kept (reels) and wat has been replaced by electronics (almost everything else)
Who is Cliff and why does he always have the goddamn notes on everything
Him: sandblasting
The subtitles: [Applause]
👏👏👏👏
I don’t see how this is wrong 👏
👏👏👏👏👏
Love ❤️ your work it’s amazing how you have so much patience with every part. Thank you
That was sandblast????
For half the video I thought it was spray paint 😭
“It ate my coin so I dissected it and made sure it wouldn’t do it again.”

Someone designed this in the 20s or 30s with a pencil, a few drafting tools, and paper. Lots of paper.
Its a mechanical marvel. Im in awe of its complexity
It's not much more complicated than a carnival automaton or fancy pocket watch of the period. Mills Novelty Co. and O.K. Vender probably hired watch makers to design and build the machines. Still, not something I could attempt even with today's technology.
While the modern thing we have now are amazing, things like this seem so much more impressive to me. How do you design and build this w/o computers? It really is amazing this was built in the 30s.
I did that once, whilst jobbing in the banking sector becoming increasingly frustrated with a secondary network system programme I sat there in my lunchbreak and doodled up a complete new system that could insert itself on top of the old system and all on a notepad and pen. Even today I doodle and write kinda flowcharts for projects and important things and lots of postit notes as my memory has become very poor in older age, I couldn't code my way out of a wet paper bag these days :(
Finally, a comments section when no one insults no one, they are all giving their own ideas and they are kind and respectful
This has to be the most ambitious restoration I've ever seen! I'm at a loss for words! Just amazing! Beautiful!
Só de olhar me dá um desânimo para desmontar. Um sistema muito complexo. Inclusive, fico admirado com quem inventou e construiu esta máquina. Parabéns pela tua coragem, conhecimento e iniciativa para fazer a restauração de uma máquina tão magnífica com esta.

Imagine somebody (or somebodies) DESIGNING this, then figuring out how to mass produce it. Amazing!
I find these completely mechanical things beautiful. They're like works of art
💀
*FUCK*
It really is! You had to be a genious back then to create something so intricate like this!
"I dont have time to watch one hour resto...." well I guess you proved me wrong.
I watch these at 2x speed and enjoy them just as much! 😁
Just casually got to your comment and said: "Wait a minute, wha-?" and yes, been watching for an hour and didn't notice.
I was trying to do homework but I couldn't get my eyes off of the screen, eventually I forgot I had homework and now it's 4:33 am
I know but I couldn't help it I had to watch lol
🏸😁
Just incredible. I would never get that back together once I’d taken it apart.
The trick is to make sure you have pictures/video of each step of disassembly or you'd probably have parts left over, and we all know what that means.
Xx xx xx je ph
He probably takes images/video of all the parts before he does that so he can play it in reverse to get a idea on how it goes back. Good trick even in electronics.
Leftover parts are a sign you made things better!
@@thisolesignguy2733 Gotta admit... an ATM looks like it was based on same principals of a slot machine. :P
I don't know what impresses me more. The engineering that went into this or your restoration. Both are amazing.
What a marvellous achievement: you should be immensely proud of your work.
Anyone else get mild anxiety about forgetting how to put it back together
Lucky it's all recorded, they can just play it in reverse.
Sebastian Quinn Until the end when you find that 1 part left over!
MILD??? I can do clean up and detail work but I always manage to have extra hardware or holes when I'm done. Even with video.
Even more astounding , before he began the reassembly he lined the massive multi hundreds of parts up in order on his work bench. Three thumbs up!!
Some people just take everything apart. I would take remove core components and work on them one at a time. Break it down into smaller restorations.
...and to think that this was thought of, designed, manufactured and built decades before any computer was made!
You think this is cool, you should see what the Greeks were up to centuries before.
All WW2 planes were designed only with paper and mechanical calculators that made only the four foundamental operations; what I find even more astonishing ois that the Concorde has been designed only on paper, using early computers as big as rooms to make some of the most complex aerodynamic's calculations
@@XMarkxyz In the late 70's I took Drafting in VoTech School my Junior and Senior year. Our teacher was a retired Draftsman from Lockheed. We started with the basics. By the end of the two years any kid in that class could layout a gear tooth profile or a thread profile. We learned the basics. I got back into it in the mid 90's when it had changed to computers. All I needed was to learn how to make the computer software do what I wanted it to do. My first CAD instructor, took a 3D CAD class with me and I ended up tutoring her. All a computer does is to speed up changes and repetive tasks. If you don't know what you are drawing a computer isn't going to help you.

Oh my goodness, the editing. The editing! You're not just speeding up the footage and obliterating any sense of proxy and vicarious enjoyment, you're actually cutting and driving the rhythm and giving it all a flow.
4 minutes in and I've already subscribed, because this is already better than 95% of the restoration channels on RUclips. Thank you for crafting such an excellent way to spend an hour :)
I can't even tell you how many parts I would have "left over" if I tried to rebuild something that complicated.
Very nicely done. Looking forward to the mechanism vid!
A(s)lot?!?
@@marianilsson8785 More than that!
Parts left over just means you did it better than the factory. (Often heard comment by auto dealership mechanics.) :-)
my mechanics:
"This slot machine is in bad condition... I make a new one"
At least a few screws/bolts. That's what happens if I'm trying to do something like this.
Legend has it, he is still trying to hit the jackpot.
I would sit there trying if I had one. Bypass the money thing and see what happens when it finally does it.
But he win some)
"Come on! I fixed you, now pay out!"
Its interesting to see how far these machines have come. First being intriquite mechanical marvels, now just digital screens where your fate is sealed the moment you put any money in.
Digital slots are pre programmed 😎
@@steffmeowiI'm pretty sure that was his point.
@@RetroJack 😎
Came here because I've always wanted to build my own mechanical slot machine and couldn't find a video on how they work (all you ever find is people telling you they know how to cheat the system and win big in a casino). Even though the mechanism isn't shown in this video, I really enjoyed it. Very faithful restoration with almost every original part saved. That is wonderful. Can't wait for the mechanism restoration!
I’ve been a slot technician for a good amount of years now and this was pretty neat to watch. The oldest games we have are IGT S2000 at around 20 years old. Nothing we have uses coin anymore, but I’ve heard horror stories
What horror stories ?
@@psirvent8 coin in jams were the most common issue. The jet sorting machines for these coins were causing people to go deaf. The drop team’s hands were blacker than a mechanic’s due to the metal dust. If you stuck your hand in the hopper they would come out black from the dust. It was impossible to keep those machines clean back in the day
I was waiting for “deals with the devil “
@@pbentle1990 yeah it was, plus the unholy things that people would do to the coin trays
Now *these* are the pieces that I live for. I'm so happy for you that you got the opportunity to revive a piece of the past, you did a great job! :D
Will always love that satisfying little pop those old screws make when they brake loose for the first time in God knows how long lol
Probably the best restauration video I have seen so far.
Congratulations !!
Thank you very much
Anybody else watch this in 2X speed? Great restoration!
Me, it's almost an hour, I wouldn't watch a video THAT long, but I did at 2X speed.
what I'm curious about is if that makes a difference in the revenue of the channel.
Haha, I watched at 2X speed and it reminded me of a Hand Tool Rescue video.
I watched it at regular speed TWICE!
Always 2x for me, with rare exceptions - Hand Tool Rescue being one of them! 😊
Like everyone else, I'm in awe of your ability to actually put this thing back together again. I think I'd still have trouble with a full schematics and the original designer helping me out.
And I love the high attention to detail with the paint and all the sticker and card designs - keeping it as true to the original as you could. Just beautiful.
Man! I could tear it down but putting it back together. Never in a million years. Great job!
I figured it out. He isn't recording this for us. He's recording it so you can put stuff back together. Just uploads it for fun. I'm on to you sir.
That's all restoration channels
It’s crazy how he assembles everything back. I’d lose track on putting back the batteries on my tv remote
I think the Tonga truck was at the upper limit of my imagined capabilities. Unless there were a zillion dollars payday for this, I wouldn’t attempt it. I admire your perseverance!
Incredible. Just incredible. Loved every second of this.
stuff like this you do for the joy of it, and learning/honing skills. You could probably sell it on, but I doubt there's much profit when you consider the labour, tools and parts. You do it because you want to do it.
Brings back some really wonderful childhood memories. I spent many hours with my grandfather at the antique fairground he hobbied at... the machines there ran on 2 pence pieces for the most part - some were 1p and a precious few were a whole 5p! I never did quite figure out what the blue fruits are. Perhaps they’re plums, faded by age? I’ll never know. Just seeing this unrestored machine brought a happy smile to my face, I’ve yet to watch the video through. Let’s see whether your restoration surpasses my grandfather’s!
I spent a year working under Dick DeLong, of RS DeLong carvings, restoring antique slot machines. It was a great experience and I had an amazing time working on the old machines. You did an excellent job on the old Mills. Nice work!
Haha, dick delong
Back in around 1988 I went to a school in Vegas to learn how to repair these! I work as a heavy equipment mechanic though, too much of bad stuff in Vegas then.
Lot of stuff back then was nickle plated..
my mechanics:
"This slot machine is in bad condition... I make a new one"
This made me giggle way to much
Legend has it, he is still trying to hit the jackpot.
God I hate his catchphrases
Different guy
People are so quick to replace a broken part but fail to realise that part has a single broken or worn part that is cheaper than the whole unit.
Carbon brushes in a motor for example.
This is beyond patience. This is passion.
I love how even the stickers you put back and the ones you couldn’t salvage you recreated! Amazing!
my god at the amount of FLAT HEAD screws!!!! THE BANE OF MY EXISTENCE!
*_Handy Manny is shaking_*
I'm a piano technician and we encounter an unhealthy amount of standard head screws in older pianos.
Like any slot machine the pay out shute didn't have much wear.
Lmao!!!
You are very observant my Friend😎.
I'm not being grammar police here but I always thought it was chute, not shute. Maybe it's spelt different in other countries???
@@varrjames186 Hi, I don't mind being corrected. I like to get my spelling correct when I can. My use of grammar is a whole other question.
As it turns out "chute" is a more common spelling but "shute" is also used. Maybe the reason for the variation is that I am an Australian english speaker and we have evolved our own dialects. When people learn English as a second language in England or North America they are often confounded by the different language in Oz.
Bewdy!
Cheers Mate
@@mutualbeard I've done a bit of research and both are correct although chute is more commonly used. I did ask out of curiosity and not to mock you.
Take it easy mate from Melbourne.
Edit
A good example of what you've stated in your comment is I say spelt, but other people say spelled...both are correct.
Iv’e watched a lot of restoration videos and been amazed at how they pull it all together, this is in the top three, the skill and craftsmanship is just stunning, wow
Unintentional ASMR ... well done !!! Love the simplicity of the editing. Nothing crazy. Very peaceful
AMAZING ENGINEERING - THE THOUGHT AND SKILL IT TOOK TO CREATE THIS WORK OF ART ... THANKS FOR THE RESTORATION WORK YOU DID ON THIS PIECE - BETTER THAN NEW
Well...the only discernable difference between us is that you have nine pairs of vice grips while I only have two! Seriously, did you have a schematic to follow or did you simply rely on your native genius (or both)? This is one of the finest restorations and displays of mechanical design, function, and understanding I have ever seen. Beautiful work at every turn....best to you and stay healthy.
This is where the digital camera pays for its self!!!
THAT SLOT MACHINE IS LOOKING AWSOME. ITS PAINTED MY SCHOOL COLORS. SWEET.
Wow, what a project! These machines were state-of-the art for their time. They were not toys. They were designed to function through 100k's of spins, and even had rudimentary features to deter cheaters. My grandfather had a similiar one in his tavern. He used to give me a handful of nickels to play it, and I could keep what I won, unless I hit the jackpot, which went back into the till! I had one of these apart once, and from the number of symbols vs the paytable, I worked out that the machine held about 30% for the house!
Hey Creator!!! You get respect for not showing the restored piece in the thumbnail, thank you for having this video be a long form video without too many cuts I pray you don't get demonetized, I clicked on this video because I knew how many small components are in slot machine which would be most satisfying to watch. Thank you and all respect goes to you for leaving in ambient sounds and not wonky background music.
No spoilers in the thumbnail!
Made 100% on my mechanical aptitude on the SATs. Guidance counselor said, “If you weren’t female I’d tell you to be a mechanic.” An inherent talent which was denied makes me drool in envy. Thank you so much for sharing, this was extremely fascinating.
I took a occupation test and it told me to go into logging or sewer sanitation... I ended up getting a degree in mechanical engineering instead. Thanks for watching! ❤️
Wow, just wow! One of the best restoration videos on RUclips ever. So many parts and so interesting. Loved that you used some original untouched parts here and there. So looking forward to the video of the mechanism. Excellent craftsmanship to!

I was thinking the same thing. To catch fake coins.
It's hard to see properly but it's not a magnet is it, to prevent steel blanks being used instead of coins?
@@hunterwatkins9858 was there a point to that?
Back in my pinball machine days, the coin acceptor would test diameter, thickness, weight and magnetism, in that order. The magnet might be missing, it was optional in countries where iron might be used in legit coins.
In the US, we had steel pennies during WWII to save copper. Maybe it was a penny machine upgraded to nickels but they had removed the magnet during WWII?
A penny in 1933 would be the equivalent of 15¢ today.
Gorgeous! Wonderful work restoring that old beast! Thanks for the awesome video!
I'm at a loss for words to describe how amazed at what you just completed. I have one of the machines and am scared to death of taking on the project you accomplished! Bravo 👏!
Amazing restoration, sir. She is now better than when she was new! Thank you for such a satisfying video.
I really wish we had seen the jackpot payout, though!
I think the part at 42:30 is a probably space for a coin sorter so if you put in something that wasn't a nickle it would drop it out of the machine.
That's exactly what it is
Yep, it was called the slug remover. It came about around in the 1920s when people would use slugs, or even strings tied to coins. I even heard of people pouring oil or hot salt water to trick the machines.
@@thisolesignguy2733 "Stringing," "Spooning," "Rhythm Play," "Drilling," "Handle-slamming," liquid detergent, slugs, foreign coins, magnets--the list goes on and on. It was a constant technical battle between the cheaters and the operators--who sometimes had a few tricks of their own.
This one has a wooden case without the hanging or floating armor plates to deter drilling.
See Scarne's "Complete Guide to Gambling" (1961) or Ortiz, "Gambling Scams" (1984).
My dad had a Quarter slot of a similar vintage. The mechanics are the same and I loved working with him on his. Great job and look forward to the next one.
Wonderful! you use these videos to remind yourself how everything you take apart goes back together. absolutely fabulous this restoration
Congratulations! 🤟
This is insane. Beautifully insane but still insane haha! I think you hit it out of the ballpark with this one. A new gold standard for restorations! :D
Part 3 should be I play this beautiful machine until I hit a jackpot.
That was easily the most complex restoration project I've ever seen - EXCELLENT
That's a great piece of engineering and to re-worked it like you did is pure art! Congratulations!
This deserves to have a roll of buffalo nickels and barber nickels put into it instead of modern ones. It is so well done.

Always relaxing to just have the clunks and clicks as you calmly work, I show your vids to my apprentices to show them how a slow paced work ethic actually speeds up the process by not making mistakes in the first place, thank you for sharing and keep up the great projects.
Utterly amazing, I was glued to every second of this video!

Absolutely phenomenal! Amazing talent and art skills! My hat's off to you. Genovese.
To think you found a 1933 mechanical slot machine that was not destroyed during Prohibition. That is amazing in itself,but you restored it to its former glory,which is wonderful.
That part is to detect Coins from "slugs" isnt it.
It was, which lessened its usability in northern border towns.
Slugs?

Fantastic restoration well done great job ~ just an observation the three felt washers @ 43:00 should have been on the head of the screws with the washer and not on the other side.
I was recently gifted this exact same slot machine by my grandparents. Great restoration, now I have something to refer to as I attempt to restore mine.
I am freaking impressed. The effort that went into the design and manufacture of this machine given the level of technology when it was made. Then throw in your ability to disassemble, clean, restore and reassemble this machine is just plain nuts. I design machinery for a living and know how complex things can become. I have subscribed to only three other RUclips sites. You are number four. I'm looking forward to looking at past restorations and new ones as they come along.
Wow, great job. thank you for the video :) Radek
All you have to do is ask someone in the country side if they have any thing that doesn't work and thats in good shape that they dont need or want
The level of engineering and fitment to make this machine in the 1930s is nothing short of insane. Today's slots probably have 1/3 the parts and of course none of the soul or joy de vivre that went into this. Restoring it does justice to those people who were responsible for its manufacture.
I've watched videos of repair work on motorcycle engines, audio, antique furniture, etc. in the past, but this is the first video that impressed me. Great!👍👏👏👏😘
In the beginning, I was like, “Yeah, that’s way too complicated for me to ever try”. And here you make it look so simple. Great outcome. Looks beautiful.
imagine hitting a jackpot on your first spin
Редко пишу коментарии,но этот раз исключение👌Шикарная работа😉 Я бы запутался в таком количестве винтов и деталей.Думаю всё изначально фотографировалось,а после разбиралось,приводилось в чувство и собиралось🤝
Износа деталей нет.Может мало работал или материал высокопрочный.Удивляет конструкторская изобретательность.

Can someone translate

Зачем фотографировать, если он весь процесс снимал на видео. Плюс к этому своеобразная раскладка всех комплектующих в том порядке в котором разбираешь. Сам когда то работал часовым мастером - сложности были в основном в первый месяц, все приходит с опытом до автоматизма. Но все таки думаю, что у автора есть определенные навыки и задатки конструктора, механика, понимание в работе различных механизмов.
Been working casinos for 21 years now have done a couple restorations on old slots but I give you this hands down best video of a restoration I have ever seen
These restoration videos would dominate if they took a cue from other restoration videos. 1. No Sound. 2. Speed they thing up about three times faster. No BS. Ill watch this stuff all day.
That questioned piece at 42 min ... is it magnetic? might be "slug stop" . saw something like that in a pop machine
Is the part you asked about identifying the incorrect or non-coin return to the bottom tray slot? Nice job.
The most amazing restoration video I’ve seen in youtube. Just amazing. What a great job! 🤯
That's AMAZING!!! The mechanics are crazy. You have superior skill and talent! 👍👍
Просто огонь!
Супер! Интересно,где он берет все эти штуки?

@@user-uh7zu2fo3z на этих пунктах приема, много чего интересного . Тащат туда ,, сокровища ,, предков ( инструменты , спорт инвентарь, механизмы и так далее ) что бы выпить !
Hi,
You have a really good memory to gather all the parts and also you are persistent man. Bravo!
My friend, this was so satisfying to watch! Such a beautiful job! The paint, the details gorgeous!
That was an amazing restoration. Is it just me or did the the coin box not look as restored as the rest of the slot machine? Looking forward to the part where you restore the mechanism.
A true sign of a professional: recreating the destroyed label. 100%
