I've got two of those subwoofers to hook up.
Maybe I'll do that this weekend. TRON and LOTR are side by side now. Those would be a good pair. Maybe BSD and something else on the other wall?
Any special instructions for hook-up? Don't wanna blow anything up.
As for my diary log:
It's been a busy week or so.
I got the garage all prepped last weekend and the electrical is complete. I now have power for all my needs and I 'll have insulation sprayed on Monday. Hopefully the new garage/workshop/overflow mancave can finally start to take real form.
I've also been continuing some small work on a few playfields here and there... trying to get at least 3 of them prepped for clearcoat at the same time.
I was a bit upset at myself for not getting on the CPR High Speed repro list, but someone came to the rescue and showed up at my place with these babies!
I was fortunate enough to be offered the chance to purchase one of them and am looking forward to a swap and full shop on my container HS... which is pretty darn nice already, if I do say so myself
A couple of days ago I took apart the silly coffin on my BSD and am trying to convince our resident artist to come up with something better than the stock 'carbon frozen Ron Jeremy'. I found this really cool MacFarlane figure and would love to do some sort of crate of dirt around him. Much more accurate to the film and other decorations on the playfield... and very fitting for this mean B$TCH of a game :evil:
And lastly, with the garage starting to come together, my plan to have a couple of vids in there to share space with a couple of project pins is starting to take shape.
I purchased that Super Sprint from YellowMustard in Montreal and hope to get that in soon. And, at the shop, I've been using some down-time to get this baby made!
I've always been a big fan of classic arcade cabinets like this Nintendo and some of the early Bally/Midway games like PacMan and Galaga. These are exceedingly hard to find in decent shape so, with lots of help from a friend who provided a doner cabinet, I was able to create a pretty accurate scratch build. This cab will be done as a Donkey Kong, but It'll house a 60-in-1 for now. I plan to have a MAME in the basemment gameroom, so I can afford to stick to just classic vertical games on this one.
Can't wait to get it done!
Anyway, that was a big installment.
Maybe more next week
