Hi,

Been collecting arcade games since sometime in 1984.  First game I ever got was a Galaxian I bought from a bar at closing time.  I have a small collection of 14 games and am working on restoring a Gyruss right now.  I'm a member at KLOV and wanted to come over here and hang out while listening to the Arcade Outsiders podcast and check out the forums.

Welcome to the site!!! Smiley

Thanks!  Cool site.  Your YouTube channel got me interested again in this hobby ... Just finished a Gyruss restore.  I spent way too much money on this game, but learned how to spray automotive lacquer so I consider it well spent.
