Yessir! :happydrinkers: Title: Re: Upcoming "fixit" project sneak peek Post by: Ryengoth on June 15, 2018, 12:42:47 pm Hhm... no clue.. Will you make a video?.. enjoy watching those. Absolutely. I suspect there will be lots of learning on this one. Not as much electrical as the palm reader game, though. I'm finishing up a Neo Geo arcade stand-up repair for my buddy (same one that's asked me to repair all the other stuff). Swapping the CRT out for an LCD, nothing too geeky. Once that's done, the new project will arrive shortly after. I'm almost done with the screen swap, just waiting on some LED bulbs for the coin return buttons. This one may be the last one for a bit.

Title: Re: Upcoming "fixit" project sneak peek Post by: Ryengoth on June 18, 2018, 06:16:46 pm Got a chance to see it in person this weekend. It has keys luckily but there's a decent amount of cosmetic work to do including external paint. The coin slides felt like they had no moved in 20 years, probably just need a cleaning. Not sure about the heater or what's inside but that's all part of the repair/rebuild fun on side projects like this. :biggrin: Waitin on joystick grommets for the game console and then this will be coming in the garage. I also have the 1997 parchislo machine I'm doing a full internal clean and door rebuild on. That is my personal project. The peanut cart is another one for my buddy that owns the Museum of The Bizarre in town.
Title: Re: Upcoming "fixit" project sneak peek Post by: Ryengoth on June 23, 2018, 05:39:30 pm The game console just got picked up, new LCD screen and Wisco joystick repair. Have a Van De Graaff generator to repair which should be a quick video and then the roasted nut vending cart should be coming in. That is definitely one of the biggest items I've seen that needs unknown work. The Dixie Narco Coke machine not withstanding since the cooling worked when I got it.

I'm not sure when I'll be back on the big stuff at this point. Waiting on ortho appt on Monday to determine recovery path. Title: Re: Upcoming "fixit" project sneak peek Post by: Ryengoth on July 11, 2018, 10:20:40 am "Mr Health Nut" nut vending cart is still vendorless. Does anyone happen to know who made these carts? There were several styles that had the same blue paint, wheels and Mr Health Nut character logo varying from 1 to 3 nut selections. All work the same way. I'm trying to determine if replacement decals and other parts can be purchased.
