Yeah. I know ;) I waited for you to say yes... but didn't want it to get away either! I think it's gonna need at least $300-$400 worth of parts to make it really nice, so I can see why they go for $800+

START YOUR ENGINES: restoring my first vid; 1986 ATARI Super Sprint Part 1 Well, all the sub-assemblies for those DK cabs are done as of today. Tomorrow I may start assembling full cabinets in preparation for the paint booth. But, today's update is for another classic vid project. I grabbed...

It's a pretty cool space... although it's pretty much just a raw warehouse with several rows of games. The name makes it sound a lot more grandiose 8-) I was just in LV last week for a few days and didn't get a chance to stop in, but I tend to visit 1-2 times a year when I'm down for...

Yeah. Your vacation left a big hole in the forums for a few days :D I figured I'd add a little filler LOL! Thanks.

Well, if that's the case, any other advice is probably gonna go the same way. Not to be a smartass, but there's no magic "fix it" button located under the playfield :lol: You just gotta dive in and learn. His plan of attack seems to make good sense and it would not be hard to simply remove...

Man... progress is slow on this stuff when you only have an hour a day to work on it. Back panel retainers have been assembled and "T-nutted" for easy access down the road. Not exactly true to the original builds, but then again, neither are metal L-brackets for all of the assembly. I think a...

Hmmm, you'd figure a condo would have pretty even flooring. Anyway, as long as the game resides in the same general location and you're not 'walking' it accross the floor as you vigorously try to climb the IFPA rankings... you should be fine by locking the levelers in like Adam suggested. Good...

Wow, I hate to bash a game... but that gameplay vid looked terrible :( I have to assume that there were a lot of non working features on that machine because there were zero ramp shots in the entire 5 min video! The ramp flaps never came down. Also, every shot to an orbit simply spilled the ball...

A Chris Hutchins game would be worth a good deal more. Like maybe $6-$7K on top of the prices I've already mentioned!!! His work is the ultimate in pinball restorations and his two BR projects were so intense that he practically swore he would never do another. Besides the fact that that...

Re: New Banzai RunjQuery18206040528553259543_1395324975228?? Well, higher end Banzai Run seem to go for between $4000-$5000. This particular game was for sale at $4000 on maaca last October. I had worked out a deal to buy it and was about to head to the bank to transfer funds over to Claude...

Bummer :( I've been plagued with various 5v reset issues over the last year. Good luck with it Rob.

The steps in the previous post occured in January and February. This week I have started mass assembly of all the parts. no finished cabs yet, but almost all of the other sub-assemblies are together. Tomorrow I plan to knock together the retainers for the back access panels (which also...

THE NEW KING OF KONG: if you can't find a vintage Nintendo cab.... just make your own Part 1 And now for something completely different. I'm not really a vid guy, but I do love classic Nintendo cabs and decided I would try and build a Donkey Kong from scratch... but most likley with a 60-in-1...

Re: FS: TOTAN What happened to the CQ one you just bought William?

Hey Ryan, Sounds to me like the seller of the board has already given you some pretty good advice on attempting to diagnose, or at least narrow down, the source of the sound issues. Have you already tried what he recommended?

Re: FS: TOTAN Good luck Steve! That's a nice TOTAN. Didn't think it was still for sale. I would totally buy this if I could sell my XMLE.

Waterworld! Don't see those very often. Would love to try that one out

bwahahahahaha!!!! :lol: Got mine today as well!

It's been a slow week for pinball, and posting in general. Had to leave for LV last Saturday and just got back in the week hours of the night. Didn't even get to visit the PHOF this time around :( I was on a bit of a tear last week. Hoping to pick that up again, now that I'm back. If the jetlag...

Thats a damn nice BR!!! Is it for sale? :D :D :D
