I'm feeling much better now. Man, I hope I'm never that sick again!

Fixed a Boo-Boo on my Mr Do! Cap Kit (I should read ALL of the instructions first). The picture still has a slight problem, but I think I can adjust that out.

Added the ability to Submit Links On-Line now. I will review them and put them live as they are added. Choose the Category that you feel best suits the Link. If you think that I need to add a New category then send me an @EMAIL@ and let me know. It doesn't take much to add a new Category.

I started working on my Q*Bert PCB. This should be interesting :-) I already replaced the crushed chip with a Socket (and I have the replacement chip). I also replaced the crushed socket with a new one. When I finish up the Restoration tables, (adding a couple of tables) and integrate them into the site I will put up a page for Q*Bert.

Speaking of Q*Bert. If you have one and have a Digital Camera, I would appreciate any high-quality pictures of the Inside of your cabinet. I need pictures of where the boards are mounted, where the wires run, etc... Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I finished painting the second side of my Metrocross cabinet. The second side is not as smooth as the first side probably because I didn't put any Paint Conditioner in the second batch of paint. Oh well, another lesson learned. I'll probably sand it down with 200 Gritt sand paper and call it even :-)

I decided that I would like to fix up my Mr DO! Cocktail. I will have a page for that as that project progresses.

I decided to add two new categories for Older News (1998 and 1999) to help seperate out the news a little more.

More News!

So my Galaga died today...
 
I'm not sure if it's coincidence or related, but I was turning the power off on my Defender by the power switch under the control panel at the exact time it failed. The switch was a bit tough to toggle so it was like in the half way position when it happened. Both games are on the same circuit.

Restoration/Preservation has begun on my Kickman.
 
It's not a full restoration, but more of a preservation of what is there.  I like trying to keep things as original as possible.  With that in mind, I can take a few chances on this one as the damage is already done.  I'm mainly trying to prevent even more damage when I can.  Worse comes to worse, I'll do a full restore on it down the road.
