Play Field of United Leaders

This is schematic of the Playing field of 1951 united leaders pinball machine showing ball switches 1 to 25. The 1951 United Leaders is a Bingo type pinball machine with three cards of 25 each. Each card has the numbers in different order. You can play one card at a time or two or three which gives you more possibilities to win but you can only win on one card at a time. You have five balls to play and three in a line will win plays four will win more and five in a row will win the most. It is a lot of fun to play and you can learn to direct the balls to the holes you want by gently bouncing the machine but you must be careful not to hard or you will experience a tilt which will end the game. Their are no flippers this machine and those similar were used for gambling because you could cash the replays in for cash.

Spare Parts

Here are some spare parts for my project pinball machine don't see any bulbs had to order some.

United Leader Pinball machine 1951 model

The way this machine is suppose to work is you get three in a row and you win you get four in a row and win more plays you get five and you win even more can be up or down but not across. You can only win on one card. It takes nickles to operate. The machine has a tilt so you can't get to rough with banging it around. Right now there are several things not working on this machine not only will it not score when you win some of the lights will not light up.

Broken Arm Report

This is the latest on my arm my cast is gone praise the Lord it feels good to be free from that and the itching that goes along with it. I am signed up for therapy which will start in April for two weeks so I can get free use of it since I haven't used it for six weeks. Not able to lift any weight but able to drive now which gives me some freedom. Will try to be more responsible and careful so I don't have to do this again. My ribs still hurt a little from my fall but they are coming along.
