Found it! Pachinko Balls approx 50

[replicas]

I'm after around 50 Pachinko balls for my TZ gumball machine. I'm not to sure how many I'd need to fill it so just guessing at 50. If anyone knows for sure how many fills it and could enlighten me it would be appreciated.
I know a few on here have Pachinko machines and may be able to help.
Thanks in advance.

someone just put literally hundreds on ebay and was happy to split them down into smaller lots

The guy who is willing to split will only do 100, and they are a little pricey.

I have some.....
And strangely enough some others are in the tumbler to make them ultra-shiny....

Hi Darren - I have some I can let you have - I'll post a pic of 60 in a pint glass for scale

I'll put them in the post tomorrow & let you know - in better times, I'd be handing them over to you on Friday, but as it is, you haven't moved since the last league meet at yours, have you?

I'll add that 25-30 each side does't fill it, it just goes this far:

But i think that looks right compared to the translite and allows some light to spill out.

Paul, have you put the light kit in your gumball machine ?
Does it work well ?

yes mate, used the Pinbits gumball light kit, works really well. Red LED flashes from above the balls when the load gumball insert is lit. Also has GI lighting in white (warm or neutral/cool) also down-lighting shining through the balls.

I fed the mod's GI feed from the Playfield right hand circuit, so it also dims when the PowerBall 'i want it back' call-out goes off - this isn't the install advice, but should be IMHO.

This only works properly with a GI OCD board though, to smooth the LED dimming, otherwise it'd flicker like mad.
