    I had trouble seeing them in the pic. Looks great. How were the instruction plates difficult?

    #315 7 years ago

    Had to be completely sanded off and the numbers, letters and lines are super thin so it was hard to paint them.

    Them lines do look pretty thin. But you did a nice job they look great.

    #317 7 years ago

    Thank you for sharing all the great photos (applause!)

    #318 7 years ago

    Very cool restore thread. You've got some mean talent to repaint those plates so perfectly. That's one sweet looking machine!

    #319 7 years ago

    #321 7 years ago

    Dude. Your restores kick serious azz!! I'd love to come to your arcade someday.

    #322 7 years ago

    how did you find a dome for this? Seems like something nobody would have ever, and doesn't seem like something you could have made.

    Scroll back through the post Neo, he mentions that he had one made and the particulars around having it made!

    Specifically the bottom of page 2 and top of page 3!

    #324 7 years ago

    i totally missed that. I didn't there were companies that could even do that.

    #325 7 years ago

    Are you doing this restoration at the same time your restoring the Outrun? Where do you find the time?? Work is simply amazing.

    Yes, and about 8 other games. It's a juggling act for sure. Thanks!

    #329 7 years ago

    Nice and flat! Put them out in the sun sandwiched between glass and wax paper.

    These were warped all over the place from the heat coming off the bulbs underneath. The bulbs will be replaced with LED strips.

    Sounds like a full time job, I assume you are retired?

    #331 7 years ago

    Semi-retired. Own a couple tech ventures.

    Dome fits perfectly, even a little snugger than original.

    #343 6 years ago

    Nice ! Cant wait to see this thing all done. You will have to do a video of it working.

    #344 6 years ago

    Nice use of led strips, are you running them at full intensity? Or do you have a control in place? Also how are you powering them?

    #345 6 years ago

    A little further along.

    New locks and keys.
