Title: Saddle and Turf
Post by: galahad on February 28, 2011, 08:47:57 PM
Just picked up a rare Horse gambling machine made by Evans! Called "Saddle and Turf"! Made around 1953! These old timers were engineering marvels in my eyes! Some major parts are missing, but am taking the challenge that I can get it to run again like it was designed to! Just thought I'd share!

If anybody has any info/input on this machine  I would appreciate the help. Spinner motor is missing I believe is 110volt at between 60/100 rpm.

I have an H.C. Evans machine called Challenger that is exactly the same as the Saddle and Turf machine.  Let me know if you need the specs for the spinner motor or pics of anything else.  Do you have and repair or operation manual for your machine?
Thanks,

Yes, Would appreciate any info on the spinner motor. Mine had none. A pic of the gearhead motor and rachet under the spinner motor would be great too! Can not find too much info on this guy! If yours is working, would like to know the sequence of operation after inserting a coin. The internals, timer, spinner, relay, etc!
Thanks, Jim!
