Last May I picked up a second Donkey Kong cabinet from an old high school friend. The cabinet was complete with the exception of a monitor and if not picked up, was headed to the curb on garbage pick up day. I picked up the cabinet with the intention of making it a dedicated Donkey [...]

Power Play Progess
I had some free time over the holidays so I spent a great deal of time working on my recently acquired Power Play pinball. My first priority was a complete cleaning on the top side of the playfield. Since I’m admittedly a novice with pinball machines, I decided to clean the playfield in [...]
Power Play Pictures
I had a chance last night to snap a few pictures of my newly acquired Power Play pinball. As usual, all of these pictures can also be found in the Power Play section of the photo gallery. Here are a couple of overview shots of the cabinet, one showing the sideart, one showing the backglass [...]
Hockey With A Silver Ball
A few weeks ago, I was checking the local craigslist for sale section and noticed an entry simply entitled “pinball machine”. There was no mention of the name of the machine, no pictures and no description other than it needed some work.
I sent an inquiry to the seller and learned that the machine was a Power [...]
Golden Tee – Control Panel
I had a bit of free time over the weekend so I decided to apply my custom made control panel overlay to the “new” Golden Tee control panel. As with all good plans, I quickly ran into a few problems.
Some Work, Finally!
Earlier this week I finally moved the “new” Golden Tee cabinet that I picked up last spring into the basement for some work. After the Cardinals loss, er… gift, to the Dodgers last night, I needed something to do so I decided to finally start working on this cabinet.

Disney Quest
There is not a whole lot of news to report on the arcade restoration front. Summer is actually the best time to work on things but a never-ending schedule keeps me from dedicating any significant time to the seemingly endless list of projects. However, I just returned from a 7 day trip to Walt Disney [...]
Another Donkey Kong Machine
2 weeks ago I picked up another Donkey Kong cabinet from a high school friend (thanks, Nick!). The cabinet is in good shape and complete with the exception of a monitor. I have a monitor I could use that would require an inverter board, but I’d prefer an original Sanyo 20EZ monitor. I have a [...]
Operation Wolf Pictures
Sunday, I uploaded a few pictures of my recently acquired Taito Operation Wolf cabinet. I haven’t had time to post about the upload and don’t have time right now for a long drawn out post about the cabinet. If you are interested in the pictures, you can find them in the Operation Wolf [...]
