restorer recommendation requested: 1930s era Mills machine

Postby tcdude777 » Sun Jan 21, 2007 9:23 pm

hi,

I am looking for recommendations of any restorers you know who are
in the business of restoring Mills slot machines. I have an original Castle Front for which needs mechanical servicing, cleaning and case restoration
including wood glueing, refinishing and paint removal on the metal case and repainting.

I would greatly appreciate any comments you would have regarding those
in this business whose work you have seen who do quality work. An opinion on reliability/integrity would also be appreciated as I understand there are a few out there who are unscrupulous.

Thanks for your interest in the hobby it is through skills from experts like yourselves that keeps this hobby going. Feel free to email me direct if
you wish.

And thanks again,

Dan

Dan:

Welcome to the forum.

What part of the country do you live in?

You might try getting in touch with Fred Debaugh (Maryland) or Jeff Frahm (AZ).

I have seen machines that both of these guys have restored and they do good work.

I don't have either person's contact information, however, if you do a search for Frahm in this forum I think you will find it (I think other people have put in his contact information).

You can probably use google to find Fred DeBaugh information.
