Just trying to decide the best mortal kombat to put into a dedicated cab.

I was thinking, possible to hook up a ps1 to jamma and run MK trilogy on it, Or even use a ps2 since it will do the same job

JammCon from LastBandit will do all the PS1/PS2 to jamma hard work.

I'd be going for the Jamma pi yoke myself!

Still waiting for cathaldublin to do a review :rolleyes:
(we want video!!!!)

Totally forgot to update the outrun restore, Cab has since been finished a lot of work went into it, plastics took ages and still on the lookout for a nice condition steering wheel but it was worth it in the end to have a nice Outrun cabaret in the front room...





how do you upload a picture

Looks great mozie, well done!

a mini. not a lot of these around. nice work, looks mint.
The dashboard on mine's has a couple of cracks and cigarette burns. I like the idea of a mint replacement but the scratches and cigarette marks on it give it a bit of history and genuine arcade vibe .
The galaga cab has a few bits written with a knife on the inside of the panel ("declan + orla" type of stuff and a few other fellas being told they're gay apparently ) that I initially was going to fix but now declan and orla have a whole history in my head and I just can't bear to get rid of them

The plastics on this were a nightmare too, cracked and destroyed with cigarette burns, alot of plastic weld, rubbing down, filler, repeat et al and finally got it sorted, brought it to a panel beater to get the paint matched and mixed and more rubbing down, spraying and lacquering to finish it off. These outruns seem prone to the plastic cracking and the burns. Wonder where Declan and Orla are now... no names on any of mine but did find a 2 shilling piece from 1955 wedged in the bottom of the cocktail

Don't worry I've got that PCB for you Well its in the attic somewhere playing with the mice.

BGOllie

made some paper templates just to check everything for size (resized the bezel art up a bit so all the bottom art is visible since ) .. ordered some repro art from muddymusic & waiting for controls and t molding to arrive already



Just need a proper coin door now... ... and a pcb

Anyone here know off hand what the thickest material a sanwa button can clip into?

I just rebuilt a wooden cp with 3mm steel plate recessed into it.

If anyone fancies a One on One in "da Col" as us corkonians call it let me know!

Anyone else get that mail from Ronnie today.

€2000 for a pony!

eddhorse

Bit saucy alright !

It's all gone a bit ridiculous in the past 12 months, still his obviously shifting them, there probably already gone..

I've brought in 2 candies in the past but that is a joke.
At the end of the day thats a crt and a psu in a metal box.

Makes 2K pins look like a bargain.
2300e for a neogeo 19 thats rough as a badgers arse?
he can go and ****e !

Jack burton

He must be selling them though.

I could justify that price if they came newly sprayed and cleaned but they arnt. Mine still had a few spiders living in the back.

Mine were manky too but he does offer them tarted up for a 'premium' price... shipping seems excessive too considering I've had cabs shipped from elsewhere in europe to my door for 150.

Jack burton

Yeah I sent a pin to UK for €100 IIRC

Just finished up my next project, picked up a naomi cheap from ebay a while back, I made a lowball offer and it was accepted. Cab arrived from italy a few weeks later and was in the usual naomi condition, yellowed, cracks, spills, riveted on coin slot?!? etc but did have a naomi motherboard and zero gunner 2 cart. Picture was too good to be a sanwa 29e31s, I've had a few of these some better than others but I've had alot of problems with them too. Was delighted to find it had a nanao ms2932-s with a toshiba tube.

Anyways set about chopping it last weekend, respraying, filling sanding etc. The corner of the monitor surround was missing a large chunk on one side but luckily when I removed it most of the pieces had fallen inside and were still there, I was able to use an old soldering iron to bond the plastic pieces back together. The chopping process is well documented online and is actually relatively straight forward tbh. Decided to go with new net city livery as I had access to most of it minus the leg artwork which goes for silly money but I might try reproduce that myself further down the line if I can get a decent scan of it. Picked up a dimm across the pond and made up a cf adapter for convenience forgot how much I missed virtua tennis too...great game!

Jack burton

Very very nice

eddhorse

Looks great Mozie, you are killing it at the moment !

airmax87

you've gotta get that out to celtic throwdown, mozie

o1s1n

That's some job! The monitor looks to be in fantastic nick too.

Thanks guys, plenty of spares around too so another Naomi on the way, going tate on the next one while the chop process and disassemble/reassemble is fresh in my head
