hello everyone! I'm new here to this hobby, a friend of mine sold me his Mills diamond front slot machine and says it just needs to be timed and greased. I got on the internet and found this perfect site, I feel a new addiction coming on! 4 years ago,  I got into RC helicopters and I found a site quite similar to this one.  If it wasn't for HELIFREAK.COM,  I wouldn't of gotten off the ground. If anyone is thinking about getting into this hobby I would strongly suggest going to this site first,  it is an expensive hobby. But a good forum to go to,  like this one,  makes it real enjoyable. I look forward to starting another hobby, and if anyone has information on diamond front slot machines,  I would like to hear from you. THANKS

Hello all, I just bought my first slot machine (Thanks Rocky Mountain Slots) and already looking for another.  My only problem is that I can't keep my son off it long enough to play.

Welcome ghetto1971!  TDWC is a favorite of mine too.  Here's a shot of mine...well, my kit of it anyway.  You see, I have only one IGT S2000, but I have close to 10 kits now that I swap in and out.  It does become an addiction.  My boys like to play too.  My youngest has unbelieveable luck when he plays...always hits something big. 

Anyway, welcome and have fun!

Jason

How hard is it to switch out kits?

That depends on the kit. Your machine is currently a three reel slot (I can't tell if you have backlit reels), so if you stick with other three-reel games, swapping kits is simple and easy. If you catch the kit bug like Yoeddy, you'll end up looking at four and five reel kits, and will be buying things like special harnesses, reel shelves, reels, sound simms, progressives stuff?, toppers, ... ...  stir the pot / get cooking

I don't see a coin head, but then again, I don't see a printer, either. Assuming that you do have a printer that I'm just missing, you might end up adding coin handling as well, which requires a coin head, a comparitor and harness, and a hopper.

Oh yeah, and then there's multi-denomination, and kits that take 90-180+ coins per spin, which can add more hardware if there's an LED display on the left side of the reel glass...

Careful, this is a deep pockets hobby. money

I've found that the little kids REALLY like "LiL Ms. Green Men" game in the S2000 Vision setup.
They keep calling me ahead to say that they're coming over
and want to play the "spaceship game"... rotflmao
I almost GOTTA get another machine just so I don't have to
do the crazy 20 minute swap to get it in before they arrive!

Hi everyone. I am completely new to this, so I hope I don't mess up too bad. I've never participated on a forum chat at all. My wife and I just set up our gaming room, and we have a couple of Stop Action slots. Going to buy our slot next month at NLG in Az, but I'm wondering about transporting it home. I've been reading up on just about as much as I can, and we know what slot we want. My only concern is placing it in the back of my truck and driving back to L.A. with it. Will the travel be harmful to the machine. Should I arrange for an SUV and place the machine in the back of that. Can the machine lay flat on it's back or does it need to remain standing upright. Any thoughts or experiences anyone can share would be much appreciated.

NLG Welcome stinky1758  wave


The most important thing to do after bringing the machine home is to open it up, remove the hopper (if it has one), and to search it the machine thoroughly for coins and for other metallic debris BEFORE plugging it in or turning it on.

Another thing to know if you get a video machine as opposed to a reel machine: I always advise removing the monitor if you are laying the machine down. You can hit a bump and jar it lose if not. Then you risk destroying the monitor. It has a neck board and neck of the tube on the back, and they can break easily.

Thank you all for this GREAT information. We are planning on getting a reel game, and will take every possible measure to secure it as best we can. Once we get it home, we'll be sure to follow the recommendations you have provided us with. With any luck, I will be able to take a picture and post it. If I run into any issues, I will be sure to reach out to the group for support. Thanks again .... you are all wonderful !!  applause
