This first picture is one with the shroud removed. It more or less fell off due to disrepair. I will need to repair the plastic that fixes it to the top of the cabinet. This next picture I included to demonstrate how much RUST is on the cabinet. This is […]
I know it’s a photo of a packed in cab, but it’s the only one I have so far. Currently boots to garbage. When I pulled the AR/II R30 was burned. I swapped the AR/II with the one from Centipede. I also fixed the burn on the edge connector because […]
Pulled the monitor out of Donkey Kong 3 to see what this would do. The answer is “absolutely nothing.” I even pulled the board out to see if it would work in Donkey Kong 3 (maybe something was wrong with the cab?) but alas, the answer was no. 🙁

I forgot to share this story: when I installed the work bench in my shop it was only being supported on three of it’s six legs: both back legs on each end and the front middle one. For what I was using it for it was just fine as it […]
Over the last couple months I’ve been reading about many “warehouse raids” where guys go to ops warehouses and buy a lot of their old equipment. Usually I hear about then after they’ve happened. Yesterday was an exception. I took the boys and we went down to West Springfield, MA […]
I popped the EZ I used in D2K in this just to see if it works. With some tweaking it finally came up perfectly. I tried playing a game but couldn’t spray. An investigation turned up a broken switch holder on the spray button. 🙁 Of course, Nintendo used special […]
