It's time for another repair party @ Arcadecomponents.com :)

Date: Oct 13, 2012
Time: 10a-10p
Location, mi casa, Highland Village, TX.
An event has been set up on Facebook.

RSVP required. BYOB (booze) and BYOB (boards)

I have plenty of test equipment, but if you want to learn how to use your own, then bring it. There are 4 workbenches here, 3 will be open for you to use as I will be running my main bench myself.

Food provided. Some beer provided, but probably not enough. Will need an assistant grill master.

Be prepared to take some trackballs home. :)

List of people coming:

1. Me (DUH!)
2. robivey64
3. lightforce (shmups)
4. Projammer
5. Raven (probably an evening arrival)
6. punkshere2stay
7. zenomorph
8.
9.

2. Frax (Maybe after work)

Needs a ride:

Would absolutely love to come and offer my services, but there's no way I can afford to. Maybe when I'm back in the UK it will be a bit more affordable for me to come over and meet some of you guys.
 
You, sir, are more than welcome to come by any time you're in the states and I'm around the house. Just drop me a PM.

You can even sample the vodkas I keep at the bar. Don't worry, though. I don't keep Foster's here. :D
 
Screw the auction lol. I won't be able to go to the auction anyways as I work in the mornings on saturdays but I' love to stop by after work and shoot the shit.

If anyone wants to talk about pin repair, I've been breaking teeth on three projects right now.

Hah, I actually don't mind Fosters. It's probably the nicest Australian beer.
 
Damn. I'll be home from Afghanistan then. I'm not too much of a repair guy, but it would be worth the trip just to learn how to repair my boards and get my 4 bad UMK3 boards fixed. Is this open to guys who want to learn or have stuff fixed?

Ask Troxel. :)

You're more than welcome to come down and bring your boards.
 
Looks like I have a car show that weekend. One of the last of the season. I can't make it to the repair party. Is it possible to send my aforementioned boards to you guys to take a look?
 
I would love to come but used up all my vacation days up this week for the year and if I came Texas I would need a few extra days.
Sounds like a real good time.

Can I get a link to the fb event? Or PM it to me if you don't want it public.

See if I can talk the missus into a trip that way for the weekend. Send her shopping while I burn my fingertips. :)
 
I'll have to see if I have anything going on that day. I am a total novice when it comes to the boards...only changed out a volume pot so far.

I do have a Baby Pacman board that I am starting to wonder if there are some bum transistors (lights won't light up)...wonder if this is something you guys can help me figure out how to test?

I'm down the road from you in Farmers Branch...good to know you are in the area :top:

I will definitely try to make it if this MK addict drops by :D

Ok, I chuckled a bit. Thing is, my Stang is too modified to really make a road trip like that, not to mention that I wouldn't even WANT drive it to TX and back. I'm planning on buying a daily driver truck of some kind when I get back, so I can most likely just drive IT down there instead.

Only reason I wanted to go to the show is because I have missed almost the last two entire car show seasons working overseas and now that I have a chance to go to a show that's not during the summer and hot as hell, I wanted to go.

It's not the last of of the season.....so....I guess I'll show up to the party. Mark me down. I wouldn't want to disappoint my "groupie".....j/k.

YAY! I'll be the 15 year old kid with a "ZENOMORP RULEZ!" t-shirt. LOL! I guess that means I really have to make sure I can make it now lol.
