Title: Bally / WMS Coin Door Bezels
Post by: swinks on December 30, 2016, 08:56:43 AM
not sure if these components are of use to anyone but I needed a 2 coin slot and a 3 coin slot bezel for 90's games. These will be up at Shapeways soon in plastic that can be painted (unfortunately not suitable for chroming).

For us Aussies and I am sure Europeans the 3 coin bezel has often screwed and hacked and when we want to shop out a game this part is near impossible to find - unless someone can locate a supplier.

So once designing, test printing and fitting is complete these will be available for people to purchase. You will just need to tap the 6 holes yourself.

More info to be provided soon, thanks for looking.

Very nice mate. The DE coin entry and coin return plastic housings are always broken, missing or the wrong ones. Any thoughts on doing these ?

I can, but would need a sample (wouldn't matter if dinged and scratched, holes etc) so I can measure up and get it right.

happy to help out

new product (1 of about 6 to be released soon) via Shapeways - 90's Bally / WMS coin Door 2 coin bezel. 3 coin version coming soon as well as some variations (2 and 1 coin options in the 3 coin bezel). The 2 coin bezel is actually available at Marco for much cheaper as they have probably pumped out a huge amount. I did this one as a starter and develop from there - more will be shared soon included modded versions.

Lots of colour / material choices and can paint the white one to the same as the coin door.

just a quick print to prove the fit and function (took 5 versions to get right) with a thermo plastic that changes colour grey to white when it gets over 30 degrees - shapeways ones will be much cleaner and straighter.

next one available is the coin door - coin reject / coin refund bezel that is found on a 3 coin bezel type door.

coming soon - 3 coin bezels (with 3 coin or 2 or 1 coin variations)

ps - excuse the CFTBL door - desperate need of a restore hence these parts though a few people have requested these parts. The sample is home printed in the thermo plastic so the shapeways will be a big improvement.

for anyone with a early 90's coin door with the wide bezel that could fit 3 coin bezel but only have a 2 coin slot version installed

Question - does the door skin have 3 coin slot mounting holes in it?

90's Bally Coin Door Bezels - have been tested and I am very happy with the results. I designed them with the ability to be self tapped using your existing screws and the coin slots and eject buttons fit nicely and move in and out nicely as well. Since the 3 coin bezel worked the 2 and 1 coin bezel will work as well so this is now ready for people to order. Since this black one is Shapeways printed it has not gone through the polishing process (black doesn't) and basically raw from their printers. Prepare as you would any other part with a sand, primer and final colour along with your door. (excuse the state of the game - to be restored in the near future)
