I hear ya... A friend of mine that lived in Windsor, ON moved into a new house there and found 2 old arcade cabinets stored under the front porch. Robotron and Joust cocktails. Yep. My buddy brought them back over to me and asked if I could "restore" them. Man, I wish I had pictures of what...

Oh, a transplant. Nicely done, not many folks would take the time (or have the know-how) to do that. Building a replica cabinet from scratch isn't super easy, and takes a bit of time. I've only done a couple that way. Very well done!

I am a sucker for wood grain Atari. Not sure where that love comes from... Sunnyvale heavy, front & center. :)

Very nice! Mine is #1873. All original boards & monitor. What number is yours?

Umm, no. Purple bezel only for the minis.

FML.... Somehow I placed myself into the same minority as @ZaxxonBoner Well done... ;)

Centipede is endlessly more fun than a shooter like Sky Shark. I may be the only person left alive that actually prefers the wood grain Atari cabaret cabinets...

Oh, got it. I always forget about the OG SI Midway overlays. When I think of the monitor gels, I think SI Deluxe. Good luck on your hunt!

No, the PITA started when you brought that first game home, with that gleam in your eye.....

TL - DR... Biscuits are used for fine alignment and cabinet work. Very little strength, really only rely on the glue planes. Pocket hole screws are used for strength and have a significant mechanical advantage. For arcade cabinet applications, I can't imagine a situation where a biscuit...

Don't give me that much credit, I am not Bob Dylan here... Perhaps just the last syllable rhymes?? IDK, I'm guessing, too?? But only a few peeps out there are selling MP CP's. And I know there is usually a 2+ months backlog. Regardless, if QA is still selling the same quality MP CP's that I...

Say what you want about Zaxxon, it really is A great game But I get why some would say that it isn't Oh well....

Hi Drew, Yes, definitely textured... No mashed potato here. I left the clamps on with the hold down bars for about 24-48 hrs, over a weekend anyway. I did paint the metal cp with a white primer coat. Just rattle-can, probably Rustoleum, I'm sure. I didn't have the correct size dust washer...

Where did you get yours? I installed a MP upper CP overlay on mine a few years ago (2022). No complaints, every bit equal to OEM as far as I can tell. I do have to say that I bought mine several years ago (maybe 10+??), so I can't speak to current quality. But mine was perfect. Any...

If you always like to pay more, check out the Festool DF 500. Plenty of YouTube videos.

Well done on using the word zenith on klov and NOT be referring to a CRT... If only I could jamma word into a clever response without referencing games...

No kidding. Getting some of these boards like the JROK MW and some of the AJ boards are like trying to buy a Raspberry Pi during covid. You just have to check at the right time... Someone needs to create a McRibLocator.com style app for them. Lol. :)
