Title: Wuddup from Denver Post by: VWbus on December 30, 2015, 11:27:45 am I'm excited to be a member of the John's Arcade Forum! Love seeing John's YouTube videos each week. I always find something valuable in them.
I've built 3 mini arcades: 1/2 size Qbert (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,146091.0.html) Micro Coleco Table Top Arcade Conversion (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KiqWL7u8EH0) 3/4 Scale Donkey Kong (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaCKmYb_ICs) Those builds were fun but now I'm more into the real thing so I'm currently restoring an original DK I found on Craigslist. It's my first real arcade and I just finished soldering on new capisitors from Ian Kellogg. In the next day or so I hope to fire it up and have the monitor and sound work for the first time. (His cap kits are freakin' awesome by the way) I have a restore thread going on BYOAC but perhaps I should start one here? Then again, it's not like anyone hasn't seen a thousand DK restores. :) Anyway, happy to be here and lean more about arcades!

I think it'd be cool to post your DK restore. pics, etc or vids. Title: Re: Wuddup from Denver Post by: VWbus on January 24, 2016, 11:00:12 am sup denver :) I think it'd be cool to post your DK restore. pics, etc or vids. Thanks Terry68firebird! I'll get a restore thread going here. |
