Hello, everyone. My name's Drew. I've been collecting machines for a few years now and am a regular over at the Oklahoma Coin-Op Collectors forum. I've apparently been a member here for quite a while (had a VAPS account since 2006 or so) but never posted. Several of the members at OCOC are also members over here, so I figured I'd pop in.

Outside of an interest in arcade machines, I also collect console games and have discovered that my retro computer stash has grown to what could be called a collection. I also dabble in a bit of woodworking; I think I saw the pinball coffee table I constructed posted somewhere on here while doing a bit of googling a while back.

So, yeah, that's me in a nutshell.
 
Hi Drew and welcome!

I also collect full size games and consoles. I have a lot of consoles and I have quite a few old computers. Mostly Atari 400/800, but I do have others like C64, V20, and some apple stuff.

And oddly enough I used to do a lot of woodworking back when I had time. I think that many of the members of VAPS and KLOV have similar interests.

We even have a section on consoles here. I hope you keep posting. I'd love to see the Coffee Table you mentioned.
 
I'm over on that forum too...

So I've noticed... :D

I'll have to poke around a bit; it's always interesting to see what other hobbies crop up with the arcades.

I've attached a photo of the coffee table. One of these days I need to snap some better photos now that I have a higher quality camera.

Now that's pretty and it lights up! A man after my own heart. Now if it would only make authentic sounds when you touch it. ;)

Its kind of like the original Xbox. When they came out, I expected them to have a lighted jewel in the center. But Microsoft in their infinite wisdom just put the thing on there for looks. Imagine how much better they would have sold with a glowing light under the jewel.
