I still work for this company part time. The schedule is flexible and the work is steady so it’s a good second income. The equipment I worked range from pool tables, pinball machines, juke boxes, claw machines, and a ton of coin operated equipment. I know how to replace small motors, gears, and other parts in these machines. I also have knowledge on how to use a soldering iron as well.
