Refurbish wooden Munro table hockey game

Request for a mentor metal especially with regard to metal work. Labour of love for game originally owned by father circa 1930’s., This game which is played with a marble is a predecessor to metal slot games developed in the 1960’s.

Thing to be done

  1. Playing surface view. a) Shape and paint 9 new wooden dowel ‘players’ b) create new trigger marble launcher for red end similar to what exists in green end (see photo). General paint and stain

  2. 2)Bottom view. a) Straighten metal control rods and replace springs where appropriate.. Manufacture one new goal return container similar to what is in top part of photo. Looks to be a piece of sheet metal 3” by 5” with a depth of 2 inches. This is where I especially need guidance. Any help much appreciated Regards Mike G

Hi I know someone with a working one of these that is moving and may be willing to part with it. Maybe useful to you as spare parts? Don’t know condition for sure and it may be sentimental but he did offer it to me. Let me know if you are interested, I can try to connect you both.
