    Corner New Wood, What Type Do You Prefer

    Just wondering what type of wood you guys prefer to use when putting in new wood. Do you guys roll with what was in there before, like particleboard or MDF? Or do you opt for something better like a Birch Plywood?

    Biscuit Joiner

    Just wondering what brand folks like to use here for biscuit joiners. I always like to pay more, and I’m sure a lot of it is unnecessary. But I do believe you get what you pay for. So wasn’t sure how much to splurge on a biscuit joiner. Maybe just a Ryobi?

    Alien Syndrome/Alien Earth

    Just finished watching the new Alien Earth series on Hulu. I have mixed feelings about it, but I loved the Xenomorph scenes and how they introduced new alien entities to the franchise. It really spiced things up. Of course I had to fire up Alien Syndrome the last couple nights. If you’ve...

    No Convergence Rings?

    Pulled a monitor out of a cab the other day. Just took a look at it today and there are no convergence rings??? Or is this a “bonded yoke” monitor? Maybe the rings fell off at some point in its life? But I’m not even sure if there is a place for them. Forgive my ignorance on this, I’m horrible...

    Most Annoying Cabinet To Work On

    I’m in the process of doing another restore. I’ve done Sega, Dynamo, etc in the past. This time it’s a Midway cab from the 90s. This is the 2nd Midway cab I’ve done, the other being a Terminator 2. I have to say, I think these 90s Midway cabs are a pain to work on. Seems like there is a lot of...

    Most Obsessive Over The Top Thing You’ve Done In A Restore

    I was working on fixing up a control panel box for an NBA Jam I’m restoring. I laminated the front and the two sides yesterday. Today I decided to laminate the back of it, just cause I had a scrap piece of laminate laying around. I then painted the bottom, but then I thought, “you know, this...

    Need Some Post Laminate Installation Help

    Hey All, I need some advice on post-laminate installation work, drilling holes… I recently laminated the front kick plate on a Midway NBA Jam cab. Came out great. The problem I’ve run into are the holes that are on the front kickplate that hold the coin doors. I typically just take a drill...

    Bracing Under Cabinet

    Okay, something that I’m sure has been covered here but can’t seem to find the correct terminology for it, alas Search doesn’t work well. My question is, what is the bracing underneath the cabinet for? I’m in the midst of restoring an early 90s Midway cab (NBA Jam) and there are four blocks...

    Dumbest Advice You’ve Gotten About A Game

    Ok, what is the dumbest thing you’ve heard about a game, specifically how to play, strategy, etc. For example, someone is giving you advice about a game and it turned out to be completely wrong. I remember when I was 5 I loved going to the bowling alley and playing Gauntlet. I was a member of a...

    Coarse Surface After Spraying Paint?

    I recently sanded, primed, sanded again, then spayed the top and back of a cab I’m currently restoring. The back came out fine, but the top has this weird coarse surface going on with it. It was perfectly smooth when I sprayed it. I also wiped it down with a microfiber directly before spraying...

    NBA Jam Owners Question For You

    Hey All, I’m in the midst of an NBA Jam restore. Question for owners… What does the inside floor panel look like in your cabs? Mine is pretty dusty and dirty, but I can’t make out if it was a certain color or what at one point. I’m going to be sanding and cleaning it but wanted to replicate...

    Arcade Roll Call: Time Out Laurel, Maryland

    Not sure if this has been done before on the forums, just curious if there are any others who frequented the Time Out Arcade in Laurel Mall, in Laurel, Maryland. I used to go there a ton in the 80s and early 90s. Wondering if any other members grew up there.

    Fatal Fury...the OG

    I swapped some games out of my 4 slot Neo Geo yesterday. Went with a fighter lineup. In the lineup I threw in Fatal Fury, the original, in Slot 1. Wondering if folks on here remember it and what their thoughts are on it. It gets a lot of crap IMO, but I actually think it's a decent fighter...

    NBA Jam Owners Can You Confirm???

    Picked up an NBA Jam a few days ago and starting to strip everything for a restore. For those who own the cab, what do these top two carriage bolts do at the top of the front/kickplate? Looking at everything and have no idea what purpose they serve. Asking cause if they weren’t there...

    NBA Jam Horn Sound

    Just curious, when you guys boot up an NBA Jam, do you hear the “horn”? You know, the sound to indicate the quarter or the game is over in NBA basketball? Or do you hear the Midway bong?

    Ultimate MK3 vs Original MK3

    Does anyone else on here think Ultimate MK3 is far more difficult than the original? Basically to the point of it being not even enjoyable? I know Ultimate has all the characters unlocked and the CPU behaves differently, but geez, it’s so freaking cheap. mK3 was cheap in different ways too but...
