I'm working on reconditioning a slot machine that has a bagatelle on the side. Any information would be appreciated.

Can you be more specific?
What make and model machine is it/ Photos?
What do you need to know?
Hopefully you've got the skills/knowledge to do a correct "reconditioning" since it
could be a a very nice machine with that side attachment.

I was working on reconditioning a Pace's Reel. It had an area for the bagatelle but no actual working parts.
I bought a bagatelle off ebay since I was curious. But I didn't know anything more about it.
I then found a Pace's Reel in rough condition
with no bagatelle but a lot of wiring and interesting parts that I believe are the workings for the bagatelle.
I would like any information on how I could put it all together.

The pinball/bagetelle attachment was loophole to get around gambling laws. When you got a winning combination, you had to shoot the ball. Thr ball hit a switch and the machine paid out. I'm guessing there is only one path the ball can go.

Interesting. Early pinball with payout. I didn't realize. Thank you!
