Hey Guys - Old School Gamer Here

San fransisco...Omg...Fun story...Last fall I decided to learn to ride a skateboard, couldn't do it to save my life, sooo...I got in the truck (during this covid thing mind you), and was going to ride that stupid skateboard in every state until I knew how...East coast, Texas, lost a tooth in Indiana wound up in San Francico one night looking down this long sloping road...Jennifer rode a skateboard that night let me say, must have been going 100mph and scared to death.
 
Yes thats alot of machines...However I only have room for 13 at a time in the shop so they get cycled in and out in various states of restoration, here's a few of them...I just started a new scrach build red baron and it is wicked ugly as a design...The paint alone is already at 3.8k, Going to actually start cutting the wood very soon.

@867- 5309 Dang I like your life. Wish I had time for that. Sounds fun, broken bones, chipped tooth or not. Those are memories that will never go away. I grew up skating. Snowboarding too, surfing, etc.. I have to say, S.F. is a deadly place to learn ! lol We got hills. But once you learn, we are the funnest place to skate as far as street skating. LA or flat places are best to learn. Oh and haha, it feels like 100mph, but its really like 30.

Only 13, thats a lot ! And on top of that you got the space elsewhere to hold them. I don't even have that, so the choice is moot for me :(
 
Big in a small area I presents challenges...Tall skinny, bolted to the wall would be my first thought, basically a arcade style frame around a big Tv, but with a relatively simple control panel, Something like that could be stick built on the kitchen table with simple tools...The control panel still would present the biggest challenges, and would keep that simple and not some do everything aircraft carrier control panel...Generally 4 people won't ever be playing it at the same time.
 
why is this thread still being dragged thru the dirt?

it's a "hello i'm new" thread. thanks for joining klov. bye.

start some legit threads in the many diverse areas... geez!
 
lol -

Yea I actually did start threads individually pertaining to each question for better focus. Its just when other would reply here, I didn't want to be rude, plus like @867- 5309 said, just liked the convo.
 
I do like to talk...So anywayyyyy... by the time Dracula showed up with White Castle, I was so confused I couldn't tell them apart, and Werewolf had already put the pic up on Facebook...😘
 
Haha. Well what's wrong with world records anyway ? If I could go down in the arcade-museum.com hall of fame for being the OP of the longest member introduction thread ever posted -- Hell, I'll take that. Either way, the convo is good. If it ever does not get get, then yea.. we would bounce. And as all things, I am sure it will dry up soon.
