Hi Guys been a while since i've been on here. Great feedback and Videos (thanks Ade) on coin changeovers. luckily i have about 70 spare mechs at home so the carrier changeover had begun. I found this a great help to me cutting a big gap in a big chuck of wood so the coin mech handle sits in nicely. So much easier to work on the mechs then.
Gud luck
Brian

Decent tip that Brian.
Been using a flat table vice for the job. It's pretty straightforward and quite a satisfying job. Occasionally need to shave a pawl here and there...

Nice tip Brian, good to hear from you.
I do 20 mechs at a time. I find it quicker to repeat same job 20 times then move onto the next.
