I get request how to build my vending machine. I saw pictures of old fortune booth and get inspired. I buy the fortune cards on Ebay so i build the vending machine according to them.
Because my cards was large (5 1/4 x 3 3/8 inch) i didn't have the choice to put the gear over them. Always possible to put the cards over the big gear if they are smaller and build the release mechanism inside the gear, in this case the cards holder will not turn.I had chance the TRIPLEHEAD coin mechanism had a large gear attached to it and the 1/4 wood dowels works fine as teeth.I think now you can build a similar machine according to your needs.
