LAMSON Coin Changer

Postby Rick-okc » Thu Jun 22, 2017 2:45 pm

Guys,

I'm working on a LAMSON coin changer I picked up a while back.
It's missing rubber feet and two parts (shown below) for the dollar slot.
I was wondering, has anyone got parts for this thing?
Can you guys suggest a good foundry that can make small parts like these?
The rod is cast iron and the slide is bronze or brass, I think.

Thanks,
Rick

I believe there is a foundry in California that does decent work. can't recall the name right now. can be found on google under slot machine parts for sale. but beware, they have a habit of making extra parts from the one you send them. IE. , you send a rare cast iron marquee, they make one for you off of it , & make a few more for themselves to keep in their inventory & you usually don't know it AND you get nothing for it either. But, now they have an example to make more copies from.
they work in "all" forms of metal, do sand cast type molds, make custom stuff...... say a marquee you have ,but you want the molded letters on it to say something else = no problem.
been around for a long time.

I used the rubber from a door stop for the feet. Home Depot had them in bulk. Not all door stop rubber parts are the same inner diameter.

Thanks guys for the info. Jeff, if you think of the name, please let me know.

I'll have to check out Lowes for rubber door stops.

I believe your right.
After getting the first couple of replies, I did a search for small parts foundry. Duh!
I found a place in St Louis, ST Louis Precision Casting Co.
Has anyone used them before?

Got a reply from STL Precision Casting. They don't do what I was looking for.
Guess I'm back looking for a foundry.
