Homepin now shipping LICENCED Hankin cocktail tables!!
« on: March 27, 2014, 02:30:37 PM »
I am well aware that these tables have been copied for years and years with all sorts of variations and varying qualities. Similar machines are also done to death on Fleabay and similar sites. I don't expect a massive market for these BUT I will be building QUALITY and these are officially sanctioned by David Hankin himself and will be manufactured and sold as "Licenced product".

The one thing that will be first and foremost 'built-in' will be electrical safety and these tables will meet or exceed all Australian electrical safety regulations.

I have no idea of final sell price yet but I expect they will be only slightly more expensive than the current crop of 'copy' machines out there of mixed and unknown quality but only by a small margin.

I deliberately left that in the shot.........

There is OH&S here BUT where it matters and (for a change) using "common sense" - remember that?

Did I read that you are doing these with LCD screen and possibly a small number with CRT?

When and IF the time comes that you are looking for distributors in QLD for your products Mike, I would happily put my hand up for your range and show them to all and sundry with Australian pride.

I am sure Mr Hankin is feeling excited and proud that another great Aussie has taken on his designs that have outlasted time and he must be feeling very warm in the heart.

Thunderbirds and Hankins are GO !

Does anyone know if hankins came out with multigame option, or was there a deal back in the day where hankin got the license to play various games in his designed setup - I can't remember.

I do believe these are the best looking cabinets though.

I believe multi boards are a new thing,  by new in the last 10 years.

I believe the Hankins were all Jamma so Ops could put different pcbs in.

I never saw a multi game on site

If my memorys correct, I didn't see a multi game to late 1981, and it was only a 2 or max 3 game updated machine. That was big news at Freddy Fongs Takeaway at Reevesby when I was about 11 or 12 yrs old. How time flys.

Now, most of the 60 in 1 games are cool, but I only play apx 6 of the old school games I remember as akid. They keep me interested til I swear n hope to beat the game yet AGAIN.  :D
