Using alternative coin mech with authentic facade

di11on

Hi folks,

I have this coin mechanism integrated into my new cabinet build...



It works great but I'd like to have a more authentic looking facade. Has anyone tried using the above mechanism with an actual coin door facade pulled from an old machine?

The problems I can see are 1: getting the push button/coin return function working (it's a twist motion on the above mechanism) and 2, routing rejected coins down the to reject slot. 1 Seems a bigger problem to me.

Might be better off looking for an authentic facade and mechanism together?

Rather than trying to combine two different mechanisms I'd just go with your last option and pick up a new coin mech.

Arcadeshop.de have some components which might be of interest;
