    WTB Pinokio Hopper parts (Sensor)

    My trusty Pinokio finally failed on me after 10 years.

    I've narrowed it down to the bend sensor failed. When I bypass the sensor the motor spins. I'm just seeing if anyone has spare parts or know of a company who manufactured the bend sensors for the pinokios.
    I've tried looking up the numbers on the sensor but no luck, found a site but don't know if the store is still active. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

    give HK a call, pretty sure they bought all the pinokio stuff and should be willing to sell you parts

      I already talked to them. The Pinokio line loaders are dead and they don't have any parts.

    I have considered using my old empire revolution or a sound activated hopper board and making some kind of Frankenstein sound activated Pinokio haha.

      The bendex sensor used in pinochios is the same as the old richochet hoppers. I think tracking down a richochet would be best for your issue.

      That being said, I have a working pinochio with 3 nose cone lengths.
