Pinball looks to be in "MINT" condition.

Welcome to the arcade machine owners club :)

trust me its not mint lol. rusty side rails..rough here and there cabinet..grimey (will be mint after a clean/polish) playfield...and the car crush doesn't work, apparently when i had the repair done, he didn't actually check if that bit worked  ??? all good though, found a local guy who repairs pins so i'll get that fixed soon, luckily it doesn't really affect the game and you still get the points as if you did it.. still annoying though. stoked i found the local guy, was a bit worried i was gonna be fucked if something broke. so yeah its not "mint" but i think i can get it to mint for a couple hundred or so dollars, still going to be a cheap decent DMD pinball, so i'm happy as. plays really well in the mean time , a real "stop and shoot pin" no flow here, you have to knock off the characters shots in order, like the game, got some sweet modes tho, 3 ball multiball is mean.

haha thanks, although thats my 2nd cab a got my first one about 6 months ago(sold now though)


next plan: vewlix custom, finally talked to the old man, hes keen as, got all the tools and shit.

yeh my first one was massive and ridiculous, i pretty much decided it was gonna be too bigger job to get it "nice" so flicked it on and kept the candy, its not one of the more desirable sega cabs but pretty hard to find anything in nz so its sweet, plus imo its a pretty good looking knock off  :)

just chucked a panasonic TH-L32X20Z on layby so hopefully arrives about the same time i'm finished with the wood work (we'll see tho)

edit: yeh thats a nice one, followed it on byoac

almost there, got sick of waiting and just did the rotate, was a fucking mission but got there in the end

(http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/bb412/amendonz/sfst.jpg?t=1304059963)

so gay though, it only has joys/punch buttons, have to wait till sometime next week to get the cps2 harness to get the kick buttons going...

screen needs a degauss too, the degauss button didn't do a very good job, sweet as though, guy at works got one  :)

gonna chuck a ssf2x movestrip in there and some new locks and it'l be all done.

All up and running. degaussed the screen, came up much better, still a little bit of purple on the very edges when theres blue on screen but mostly unnoticable. Happy as with it, ST just so glorious in 15khz with good controls.

still need new locks and to get a move strip printed, but yeh, pretty much there...

cheers.
