Hey it was nice to meet you today B_R. Wish I was closer to Lost Ark. Maybe you can convince them to rotate in a few more classic pins? Give me a shout if you're ever in the Raleigh area. I'll try to make it over to Lost Ark more often... it was cool to see so many people there almost makes me wonder if arcades could survive in more cities.
It was great to meet you yesterday, B_R! Thanks for the games and the pointers. Looking forward to seeing you at the next tournament!

This Post isn't Pinball related , but It's my Thread . Anyway I worked Sat- and Finished the job before Noon 2-day . 120 sqft Utility room . Installed 1/4 Hardy backer then layed 16'' Porcelain on a Brick Pattern .. My Customer's were Happy , I got Paid -- then they sent me across the Rd to their Son's house . He want's the hall bath Tiled , Master Bath Tiled and his 300 sqft Kitchen Tiled ..
I Gave him a Turn-Key Figure on the Entire Job ( A Lil- Pricey ) but ya Get what You pay 4 ..
He accepted the Quote ,, and asked me if I liked Jimi Hendrix , I said " Hell Yea , Why ? "
He gave me a Killer Framed J.Hendrix Poster for my GRG .. Gonna hang it over my Jukebox.
I Missed some Great deal's at the January KingsPort Pin Auction , but I had a Good week-end !!

LOVE Hendrix. That photo's from an early 1967 show in London. I think it may have been the first public performance of "Purple Haze".
Speaking of gamerooms and flooring... Is that an epoxy floor in your garage? I'm thinking about putting it on my gameroom basement floor. I put regular floor paint on several years ago, but I'm not happy with the way it looks. I've researched the epoxy material, but I don't know if it can be applied on a floor with paint already on it or it needs to be bare concrete.
Just thought you may know since you're in the flooring business. Thanks.
Not who your asking but...
I think it has to be bare because you'll need to acid etch it if it is older concrete..

That was just "water" B_R was drinking. . Thanks for some mid-day pin action. See ya at the auction.
The best deals are before the auction! Get a good score tonight!
Some time's !!! Pinball Magic came home w/ me on a Friday-nite - , Mark the Owner of the Auction Company doesn't like anyone selling on Friday , due to the Already Low # of machine's show-n up .. Fewer Arcades and Pin's each auction .. The W-Salem auction could End this Yr .. He did tell me the cost to rent the building for 2-day's was close to $ 4K
Hey BR get rid of that silver t-molding on the Family Guy head and buy some yellow t-molding!!!
Yo Scott ,, I Kinda Like the Chrome Trim .. Good 2 Hear from Ya !!
I'm Gonna Quit Posting The W-Salem Auction video's i take on You_Tube ,, I know of 4 New Bidder's that found out about the auction due to MY video's , and then the people that they Tell..
What i'll do is , Have Y-Tube process the video and make the video Un-listed and Post the link here.. That way Only Pinside can see it..
Quoted from BLACK_ROSE:my Floor-n Business
Hey B_R, what should I do if I have some loose tiles? Whoever did the tile job (not for me) long ago didn't do a good job. Do they have to be removed or can some glue or whatever correct sealer be put in the grout on the edges?
Pull the Tiles up , Scrape the Floor ( I hope it's either on concrete or Durock ) Clean the mortar off the Tiles ( if Possible ) Go to Lowes and get you a small bag of thinset and Re-set the Tiles and Color match the Grout and Re-grout .. Grouting should be done the next day ..
Quoted from BLACK_ROSE:Pull the Tiles up
Thanks for the tip. Sounds like the best. Not as simple as I had hoped.
Ok , Back to Pinball , I drove to Richmond last-nite to buy a X-Men LE Wolverine w/ 81 Games played from the Original Owner .. He bought the Pin NIB thru Tilt Amusement's ,, due to an Unfortunate bill he had to sell .. I left at 8:30 P and got back home around 5a . The Pin is Still like New , I left the Box , who Keep's the boxes ( I don't ) .. The Factory Goodie Bag is Still stapled in Place , I won't bother it either .. This Pin is 187 of 300 .. Here's a few Pict's and a video when I was hang-n w/ Rob ... He has lots of mod's 4-Sale , Especially the Topper's !!!

Enjoyed the gameplay today BR. All your pins are looking like new . I got to say X-men is growing on me and your Black Rose LED's are perfect . The FG looks like it just came out of the box only better with the yellow pc. Thanks for the deal on the TZ mods. I just put them on my machine and they look great.
would you happen to have a list of the led's that you used on black rose........i would like to upgrade mine to led's without buying a expensive kit........would really like to take advantage of your experience.
Quoted from BLACK_ROSE:He gave me a Killer Framed J.Hendrix Poster for my GRG
Beautiful floor and Awesome poster.
Quoted from BLACK_ROSE:I left the Box , who Keep's the boxes ( I don't ) .

Hey Man... Congrats on the X-MEN!
Had a blast watching Rob's thread play out, you stepped up to the plate with a mission and nailed that baby home...Enjoy!
