Mills vest pocket

Anyone know of a restoration manual for the Mills vest pocket ? Not the operators guide . But a full on manual describing the techniques for tearing the vest pocket down and repairing guide .
Recently picked a couple of non working vp's that I have been playing with . Both machines are now functioning but I would like to go further with them but in proper sequence .
Thanks
Sam

There was a short (2 page) article in The Coin Slot, Spring 66, by Rick hector (Rick; are you out there?) entitled "That Problem Vest Pocket."
It only addresses a common problem with the coin slide, but you may find it helpful.
If you don't have the mag, send me a PM with email address and I'll email copy of article..

Thanks for the helpful information . I will take you up on your offer all information is good information .
Would really like to find information on breaking the machine down reel bundle , payout , clock etc .
There must be a certain order in which to do these things as opposed to just jumping in there in the blind .
Thanks again and a pm is on the way
