Damn - that first on sold for $3700.

I retired at the end of June this year. Spent 20 years in electronics working for a small co. doing custom displays and industrial equipment. When the boss retired, I ran it out of my basement for a few years but wasn't able to keep it going. Took a job in retail to 'tide me over' and spent the...

A lot of operators did that mod back in the day. It was easier (and quicker) than fixing the pot/cable.

Looks like everyone had a great time. Arcade looks cool with the blacklight. Extra points for Bowie's PIn Ups hanging in the back corner.

I've enjoyed watching this from start to finish. Really a top notch restoration. Congrats on a job well done.

Weird how you don't see it at all on the primed picture, but it's so obvious when painted black.

@joeycuda was making some. https://forums.arcade-museum.com/threads/most-atari-and-other-reproduction-cardboard-bezels.289597/

Love seeing all of those EM shooters

Looks like Road Warrior visits the 80's.

That cabaret looks awesome. I also succumbed to the 'add a KLAX to my Tetris' idea. I just use the spin/flip buttons to start the game.

Congrats. Where does the time go? My daughter is 32, and is due in two weeks with another grandchild. My grandson who is five begs to go to the basement as soon as he comes over. Loves skeeball.

jeez, you're going to be able to charge a fee just to look at this when you're done. Beautiful work.

Sweet. Glad you found the problem. Hopefully you'll be playing some games soon.

That control panel looks great. The wheel cleaned up really nice. I don't think you'll have ang problems with the wheel during gameplay as you don't usually spin it that fast while racing. Was your wheel sticky at all? When I restored my upright, the wheel was kind of sticky. I cleaned it with...

I don't often save images from KLOV, but sometimes there's just no choice.

That is some real nice woodworking on this restoration. That laminate looks great. Really impressive job.

The only other thing I can think of is to check the small (0,1uF?) caps at each chip. They usually go between +5 and GND, so if one is shorted that could cause your loading problem.

So it sounds like with no load the 5V is fine. You said you removed the chips one at a time and the 5V was still loaded down. Are all of the chips inserted correctly? There is a notch at the top of each chip, and that should correspond with the notch at the top of the socket. What happens if...
