This is going to be epic!!!!! That thing looks like a dumpster fire. Best of luck to you on this one. I'll be following along on the edge of my seat.

I'm assuming the supervisor took a look, turned up her tail and walked away.

So what goes to the other 3 pins on the board where the hack is connected?

What a mess. But, it's pretty bad ass that something that would have probably ended up in a dumpster is getting the dmacy treatment!

Another machine saved from the scrap pile.

This is going to be the nicest Taxi on the planet when you’re finished!!!!

Provided the supervisor lets it through QC.

Looks like she's checking the packing lists against the parts delivery. You know, to make sure they didn't screw up your order.

I can't wait to see this thing!

Quoted from kruzman:

I really like the way you document your work for us, but you seem to make it look a lot easier than it is! Taxi is a great game. I am enjoying watching this come together.

How true! I look dmacy threads and say to myself "it looks so easy.....I can do that!". Then I do a flipper rebuild that takes me 2 hours, I come to my senses and realize I should leave this stuff to the professionals.

I vote for black flipper rubbers.

Looks awesome (as always) dmacy !

Glad you were able to find someone to help with the wiring. Looks like a nightmare. Well, this entire thing looked like a damn nightmare, but if there was anyone who could do it, you're the guy.

This is literally going to be the nicest Taxi on the planet. I can't wait to see it finished and play it!

#135 2 years ago

Looks gorgeous dmacy !!!

Does it come with a pair of white gloves I hope? I wouldn’t want to get any finger prints on it.

Beautiful job as always!! Keep up the awesome work your a valuable resource to the community. I know I’m happy with the machines I’ve bought from you. People always comment on my Bad Cats. People are floored when they see it.

Quoted from dmacy:

Thanks lol. But let's not go overboard here! The Radcals will allow your fingerprints to wipe off so no worries there. The supervisor is getting lonely without all the playfields and parts floating around. [quoted image]

She appears to be frustrated by your recent lack of productivity. It's cutting into the amount of capital available for catnip and cat treats.
