Finally got a Skill Crane!

I forgot to mention that the replacement claw needs it's own solenoid, not just the claw housing itself. The larger claws have a larger solenoid, but the connections are the same...

I had one of these. I got it free because it didn't work. I just replaced the power supply and it worked like a charm. Mine was a joystick and I liked it! I removed the bill changer and the coin slot and put a big 4 inch button for credits. I remade the front door. I finally donated it to a charity auction and the new owner hasn't had a problem with it and its been about 3 years now.

I do miss it. It was the most used machine in the collection.

If you don't have the manual you need to get one.
