What in world SS chip goes with a 3 coin S+ "Hurricane" ?  :129- :128-

The award glass matches the 3 coin Haywire Deluxe glass but the payouts are some kinda wrong...
Not one symbol on the strips matched the payouts when won...
I was getting wins for nothing on the payline and other weird things... :72-

This is not listed in the Bible or have I overlooked it somehow?

All 3 strips are identical:  858 735 00

From what I can see the strips seem to match the PAR. FWIW, my list does not show Hurricane as a clone of any other game.

The pine cabinet looks great.
I would like to see more .
Could you give us a video walk around ?
Did you have plans or built it out of your head?

Does Hurricane do anything 'special'?

Not really Poppo.
The Hurricane symbol is only like a "Wild" card - matches any other symbol.
I tried to match it up with a 3 coin Haywire Deluxe to get the Haywire Multi-Respins and Nudging-Up-And-Down features
because the award glass payouts match perfectly...however, the strip symbols are way off...  :79-

I posted a thread on these homemade S+'s before....
With a website that has over a few thousand or so pages - I'd have a hard time finding it though! lol

Basically, I started with an S+ door.
Then built the cabinet around the door width size but made mine deeper so I'd have much more room.
I have a slit on top to slide in a 16" award glass or can put in a Mikohn progressive display to slip in 9" award glasses as well.
The slit is covered with a specially routed piece of pine that looks real nice and also serves
to close off the internal lighting from shooting up and out through it.
I used regular household fluorescent hardware for topbox but swapped out the fluorescent reel glass with a special one.
All the hardware to attach the door, reel shelf, power switch, hopper, and coin tray is specially made by me utilizing various metal pieces I was able to get at any good hardware store.

The door optics are facing each other horizontally from back to front as opposed to the standard left to right setup.
I could use a cherry switch to bypass the door optics entirely but I wanted to
use this as a test machine for work - to test door optics...
Installing the reel shelf is initially extremely difficult because it has to be modified to be slightly longer than normal reel shelves.
It takes a lot of time and patience to line up a reel shelf so that the reel strip starting point of zero (the point where the strips overlap) must lay directly on the center payline when booting up.
In retrospect, I should have used some precisely measured wood strips on the cabinet wall to attach an existing reel shelf.
It would have been a lot easier than cutting and welding additional reel shelf lengths.

Once the reel shelf is in place, the rest really is a piece of cake walk and just gets bolted
to their respective places in and around the machine.

The really nice thing about these cabinets is the amount of room inside!
I vented all the hot air from the fluorescent lighting to escape with larger vents on the back of the cabinets.
The vents are much larger and ALL the hot air escapes quite easily and freely
without the use of any noisy electric fans at all!

In the end, you get a nice, looking, quiet machine that will last as long as you take care of it - like anything else!
I really want to build my next cabinet out of a nice cherry wood in the future!

I think you answered your own question with the picture that you posted.  :200-    :5-

(That's the bonus light bar for the S+ game "Bonus Sizzling 7s (http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?topic=4317.0)")

That chip's too easy.
There's your problem Bunker. You didn't buy her enough drinks the second night!  :30- :200- :171- :197- :153- :153- :147- :147- :141-

BTW, I recognized the BS7 light box before reading the replies, but then you probably already knew that since I was part of the group that bought them when they were available. :5-
