Hey guys!  I've been getting more into arcade/pinball stuff (and been following John's Arcade youtube channel for years), so I finally decided to join the forum!  This summer, I'm planning on doing a Gyruss restore, much like the one John did on the channel.  I have the similar scratches on the sides (which I might be more determined to try and fix).  I'm also now actively scouring Craigslist for cheap games for more projects in the future -- John's search string is very helpful!

I'm also looking at taking a vacation to the New England area this summer, and am planning on visiting all of the arcade/pinball places in the area, including hopefully John's basement   Does John only see emails addressed with "Viewer Mail" as the subject now, due to spammers?

In my arcade at the moment:
Gyruss
Mustang Pro Pinball
Aerosmith LE Pinball
My homebuilt MAME cab (don't judge!)
A Japanese pachislo slot machine (that I'm looking to get rid of soon!)

Since getting my wife into pinball, she's now interested in helping me expand the arcade -- I can't tell you how happy this makes me!!

Anyway, I just thought I'd say hi, and if anyone wants to come out to Denver to check out all of our awesome arcades, lemme know!
