Will A 3D Printed Quarter Work In A Gumball Machine?

- I try a hack on my own gumball machine to see if a 3d printed quarter will turn. This gumball machine I got on Ebay and is the toughest to hack - will it turn?
These are for experiment & research on my own machines, don't try.

Imagine doing fed time for a gumball
Bonus fact: a counterfeit coin specifically meant to trick vending machines and other coin op machines is called a slug. Like the one line from that old song I’m Getting Nuttin’ For Christmas: “Bought some gum with a penny slug, Somebody snitched on me.” I haven’t heard the term used by anyone in a long time. The New York Transit Museum in Brooklyn has displays of many different slugs that people used to ride for free before the MTA stopped using tokens as fare.
This is not called counterfeit ladies and gentlemen. Just like cutting a paper rectangle isn't counterfeit
@@master_59kg The U.S. legal system doesn't care about facts and logic, disobey and it's jail time! After all, the land of the free has more prisoners than any country on the planet! Both per capita _and_ in total.
Ironically, stamping 6 cents worth of copper and nickle into a slug and calling it a "quarter-dollar" is also counterfeiting, according to the Coinage Act of 1792, and was punishable by death.

When I was a kid in the early 90s, a friend and I would made molds of a Putt-Putt arcade token in clay soil and cast them with melted fishing weights we'd find at the creek. . . and sometimes "borrow" from the sporting goods store. We smoothed out the irregularities by scraping them against the sidewalk. Our tokens only worked on the older videogame machines. However, they also worked on the coin pusher, which was full of real tokens. We did it so much, the managers and other employees started sneaking up on anyone using the pusher.

That would be a similar system to the locking shopping trolleys.
I dont know if you have it over there, but in the UK, some supermarkets have shopping carts that are locked together, and the only way you can get them apart is to put a pound coin in the handle, which is then spat out when you lock it back up. Lots of places sell pound coin sized keyrings for this.
Another example I can think of is swimming pool lockers.
When I was a kid growing up in the Philippines on a military base, their 25 centavo coin was the exact same size as our quarter, but maybe worth a penny. We used them in arcade machines all the time.
LMFAOOOOO thats evil

When I was a kid I used to go to the arcade at the movie theater and play all the games I wanted all day because i discovered that nickels worked instead of quarters or tokens. $5 lasted me all day. Good times.
Ladies and gentlemen, WE FOUND HIM
What a legend
I tried something like that several decades ago and it didn't work. Also got confronted by those quarter guys asking about exchanging nickels for quarters. You lucked out.
A lot of problems in Japan with the 500 yen coin being largely counterfeited due to its value. Machines had been tricked accepting 500 Korean won coins (1/10 of yen value) as 500 yen. The coin has been redesigned to increase security.
I remember playing at the arcades with my cousin and brother. I ran out of quarters and had a few dimes and nickels. So I went to the change machine in hopes of putting in 2 dimes and a nickel to get a quarter (I was young). Of course the dime came out. I did the same with a nickel and it came out. Put it in again while holding the coin return and out it came yet again. But when I out it in once more it spat out about $5 in quarters. I thought I broke the change machine. 5 cents = $5. The next time I went back, there was a screw in the coin slot.
Back in the early 2000's, people used to use what my grandma called "slugs" in our washing machines instead of quarters. They were smooth, quarter sized pieces of metal. The machine took them every time and we regularly lost money. 🙄
That’s so wild but so terribly cool at the same time 😭
Thanks for this, this helps me for a completely different reason than this video.

Oh yeah I remember doing this with some washers that fit perfectly in the coin slot so I just used those for like a year until we had our own washing machine

@@TylerTheBassCreator it probably did, people have being doing exactly this for decades. This video is just a waste of time. The piece of cardboard doesn't even need to be quarter shaped.

For both the ends of the tube, you can pop out the thin circular piece that sealed it.

The circular piece is a little thinner than a quarter, but IT WORKED. We ended up doing it quite a few times and I can only imagine the annoyance of people who collect the coins

Like, you know those shopping carts that you need to insert a coin in order to unattach it from the one in front of it? Yeah, haven't had to stress about forgetting a coin for one of those in a long while.
That's so cool! Over here in the UK many retailers sold these, they were a simple piece of metal in the shape of a pound coin and different places would sell them with different engravings/designs. They were called trolley coins. I feel like a lot of them fell out of use when our pound coin changed shape, but you can probably still get updated ones from online.

@@ItsPREPP98 Not that I disagree with you, the whole thing is really stupid, but it is technically free since you get your coin back when you put it back in the corral and "plug" the cart in front back in.

Short answer: yes. When I was 12, my mom worked overnights in a flower distributing warehouse and I would go with her. We didn't have the money for the snack vending machines, so one night I found a thin, but very sturdy piece of cardboard, traced a quarter, and used some floral shears to cut out as many quarters as I use. They were somehow heavy enough to do the trick! I had free snacks for a week before my mom's boss made an announcement about the cardboard quarters and holding whomever is doing that "personally responsible". I was never so scared in my life - I fessed up to my mom that it was me and she said she would lose her job if I didn't stop. She never ratted me out, but I never did it again. 😂

Gonna steal everything... One gumball at a time!
the soda machines, the snack machines. the possibilities are endless
Washing machines and that's pretty much gold
Omg unlimited candy just rob the whole thing with 3d quarters
This reminds me of when I befriended the new girl and she invited me to her slumber party. She wasn’t in my class, but she invited her entire class and only a few kids showed up. Regardless, I felt like the odd one out, so, as they were playing The Voice, I went upstairs to explore her room. On her dresser, there was a gumball machine and a Chuck E Cheese token. I put the token in the machine, but it got stuck.
I went downstairs and told my friend to come with me and told the others to stay behind. They followed us anyways. When my friend tried to get the token unstuck, she accidentally shattered the glass of the gumball machine. Gumballs went all over her room and it was a free-for-all.
And, somehow, despite all that, we became BFFs, and we’re still best friends to this day. Next month will be the 10th anniversary of our friendship and, last July, I gave her a new gumball machine for her college dorm.
Edit: For those claiming I made this up, here’s video proof from July 2022:

Also, please stop assuming that I’m a guy in the friendzone. I’m not a guy and she’s been like a sister to me for many years now.
The last part was so wholesome omg.

"he's cracked the code guys"
She wasn't alarmed you took it upon yourself to leave the group go into someone's room you barely know by yourself? I don't know... I certainly wouldn't appreciate that from someone new.
@@spider0804Nah, I'm actually happy it's one of the more realistic stories. Not the basic bs, "we became friends, now it's our 10th anniversary since marriage".

No no
He's got a point
No candy in the slot. He's trying to prove that he's not cheating.
@@andymerrett The whole experiment is ruined as long as he has hacked gumball machines in his house. He has to try a machine in the wild.
idk why i still remember trying to do something like this when i was 4 or 5 and was promptly lectured on any attempt to counterfeit currency...
And now you spent more on the 3d printing than the actual quarter :)
Its a infinite quarter glitch
This kind of reminds me of the makeshift tokens used in the NYC subway before the metro card was introduced as a method for fare evasion. You can find the tokens on display at the NYC transit museum.
Similar situation with wooden nickels used in slot machines, displayed at the Las Vegas Mob Museum! :D...I imagine less grisly fates for those who simply evaded NYC fares tho...
I have one of those with a square punched through the center on my keychain, along with a penny with a heart punched through it. I'm old and can't remember where I got either of them.
Fun fact: in Panama they use U.S. currency, but also have their own currency called balboas. A .25 cent piece Balboa is the exact same size and weight as an American quarter and will work in American vending machines.
Great tip, I'll be sure to use this in the future.
This would mean you can buy 25 quarters with a single quarter
All fun and games till the Goverment start bombing your house 💀
Ye sadly all 25 of my houses got bombed

The thing about those vintage crank machines, is it's about the weight, not just the size. (Source: parents owned a small business with these when i was in school)
Glad to see someone here isn't clueless, so many people seem to think that just size alone is enough but weight has been a factor with many of these kinds of machines since the Victorian Era, and, became pretty common by around the 1980's in the West, not sure what things are like in the East as I have never left Western Europe.
Either weight or pressure pressure is a big factor main thing is has to apply pressure to the pin i recently bought a few machines myself and was seeing for my self what it would take since obviously I couldn’t break them without worrying and can access the coin mech
@@ProvenPyro lol, thinking weight plays a role in a coin operated mechanism. no cost effective.
Same thing with older vending machines and pay phones.
No the old ones had nothing to do with wait at all. You place a quarter sized item in there with the right thickness and then you turn it it doesn't go out the slot which would reject other coins, instead it goes past that and then pushes across the mechanism that would stop the dial just like a lock
