I just purchased twoNintendo coin boxes; one for my Mario Bros and one for my Punch-Out!. Both have spot weld issues. On one the handle has separated from the body while on the other, the entire side has come loose. Does anybody know how I would go about repairing these coin boxes? Your help is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Kent

befriend someone at the local muffler shop and tip them $20

find your local welding shop (these guys will weld anything to anything)

drill them out and use rivets.
 
If these are just for a home arcade where you won't be hauling pounds of quarters, then I'd suggest JB Weld. If you use it sparingly, it won't show at all.

Otherwise, the suggestion to hit up the local muffler shop is a great idea.
 
Look in your local telephone directory Yellow Pages under the heading of "Welding". Any local welding shop can do spot welds cheap.
