I decided that documenting the process would be a good exercise for me and might prove valuable to other collectors contemplating a similar restoration, so I built this blog to serve as my restoration diary. I’ve worked on several slot machines in the past, but this will be my first complete tear-down and ground-up restoration. The price was right, so I bought the machine and brought it home.
The machine was not functioning, but appeared to be reasonably complete.
A while back I acquired a Mills High Top antique slot machine from a local seller that I found through Craigslist.
