If you have a basket case I can take care of that as well.īelow are a few more examples of my work.Do you have an old slot machine? Do you want one? If you do, it might be worth the search, as some can be worth quite a bit of money. If you have a machine that works good but is simply faded and ugly I can do a cosmetic restoration including wood, polish and paint. If you have a vintage machine that is tired but looks good I can restore it mechanically. If you have a vintage mechanical machine that is not working I can repair it for you.
