Welcome to the What's New News!

Here you will find all the latest news of what's happening with the Arcade Restoration Workshop!

Work is progressing quite well on the Metrocross cabinet. Check out the Metrocross Conversion page for pictures and details. I bought some shelves and now my workshop looks a lot better! I ordered a Manual for my Space Shuttle, so I should be able to start fixing that some time soon too. I picked up another Williams cab today. Its a Converted Moon Patrol. I have to decide if I want to restore it to Moon Patrol or use the Cab for another game like my Smash TV. The cabinet is in excellent shape but like all the rest, its been painted totally black. I think what I am going to do is use it for the Metrocross since its the Style of cabinet I wanted Metrocross in anyway. I went through all my pictures on this site and shrunk all the ones over 100K down, so that should give me more room to put up more pictures and other information! Found the new URL and Fixed the Galaga link.

Galaga Died

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.

Kickman Restoration/Preservation started

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.
