  • brilliant machine !!!

  • Thank You !!!!!

  • Do you remember a Brenco machine called "Tinky " where a small ball was blown up a tube by air into a row of money sections 2-12 p ??

    There was a great cheat where you could turn the machine off as the ball was blown up ,,,,see where it landed switch back on and bet !!!! worked every time !!!! lol Ps i worked at Streets machine Co Eastbourne from 1970-75 .. We made Wheel em ins Colorama Golden Ball etc ....

  • YES I Do Remember TINKY ,,,, Loved It ,,,,, I Remember When The Ball Landed In A Section, Those Silver Grips Moved To One Side To Release The Ball, Then Of Course It Was Blown Up From The End Right I Think By Air , I Used To Bet On The 6d, And 8d,, Got Quite A Few Winners,,, Unfortunately , We NEVER Learned Your'e Trick At The Time !! , It Was Tough To Switch Machines On And Off Aged 10 , As Attendants Were Watching Us Most Of The Time, Knowing Us From The Wheel Of Fortune Exploits !!!! ,,,

see all

  • I remember Tinky very well - it was quite a big machine which had two rows of playing stations, one on each side, with a see-through pinfield that the ball dropped through. I have been asking on various forums who made the machine, and you have answered the question! I was always playing on the Wheel of Fortune, and once saw the attendant open it up - I was fascinated by the inside workings, and would have loved to have had his job!

  • @bagsater Hi Derek, ,,,PLEASED To Find Someone Who Also Made Extra Spending Money On These Machines , I Am Hoping At Some Point To Post Another Video Showing Me Emptying The Wheel Of Fortune,,,,,,,Just As I Did In The 1960s ,,, In The 1960s One Arcade Attendant Just Walked Up While I Was Playing On Wheel Of Fortune ,And Switched The Machine Off , Said Nothing, And Walked Away!! , We Had 5 Machines To MILK Spread Over 3 Seaside Arcades At The Time,

  • @supershotbattymanbor These were easy to milk ( fast start count back ,and slow start judge !!) ,along with "match a fruits" , i lived on the south coast and during the summer holidays made loads of cash ,(until we were chucked out lol"

    They had 6 on Eastbourne Pier and on the old West pier at Brighton thay had about 8 of the buggers !! Lovely to see this one going again (oh those were the days ) !!

    Thank you for posting this fab video Best wishes Derek

  • Hi, Not The Way We Emptied Them , But Your'e Way Would Also Work , When Play Now Came On, With The Arrow On LOST ,A Fast Start ,( No Pause ) .Would Result In The Arrow Finishing On A 6d Win The Way You Describe Every Time !,

  • I remember this machine on Bognor Regis seafront arcade; it had a cheat on it. I used to wait for the arrow to go on LOSE then bet on 6; i could empty the machine every time as it would always land on six. Is this still the case with yours? Nice video, thanks for sharing, Malc
