The Pa*****o machine we have is old enough to be a family heirloom. My dad bought it back in the mid 1970's at a department store. It's pretty big and works mainly by gravity. There are a few electric light-bulbs but it works fine by putting all the ball bearings in a reservior at the top and gravity does the rest. I should have put a ruler there for scale, it's about 3 feet tall and 2 feet wide.

My parents offered it to me when they downsized. How could I say no? It still works, although the ball launcher sometimes gets a little sticky.
