by Craig Smith (051207 MMDigest) Hello from the just now snowy Northeast! I recently bought an Olympia 15-1/2" disc box in a rather nice case. Unfortunately, it has a few problems. Most I can take care of when the time comes, but there are two things that I could use some help with. First, it is missing the two damper rails. Would any of you folks happen to have, or have access to, a set of damper rails for this box? It sure would save me a lot of time making them. I'll be happy to pay cash money or trade a few disks or some combination. Secondly, the coin mechanism is really strange. Well, maybe not
for an Olympia box, but I haven't seen one like this before. It has
two cast arms, one of bronze and one cast steel, and a coin "pocket" with
an articulated trapdoor (missing). There are clearly a couple of
other parts missing and I'd be really happy to have a picture of a complete
one. Does anybody have a 15-1/2" Olympia coin-op that I could have
a picture of? Please don't assume that someone else will reply.
If you
Thanks for your help.
