Yay! My bro came over last Friday and helped me set up a bunch more machines in my basement. Now up on their feet in various states of running:
I wheeled Shadow over to the newly-designated shop area for some upcoming shopping. Also note that Banzai Run is totally non-functional.
Here’s a highly distorted 180 degree panorama put together with Canon’s photo-stitch software:
The display on my Diner has been on its last legs for a while, so I installed a PinLED replacement display. Looks really nice. It’s missing the black framing around the edges. Trying to peel the framing off the old display ruins it, so I’ll have to try and make a new one.
While I was working in the back box I noticed that my Diner is also missing its knocker, so I pilfered the one from Hurricane.
I moved to a new house. The new house happens to have a basement with room for lots of pinball machines. Here you can see the mover-guys taking Diner off the truck, making it appear as if it’s no big deal.
Now I just have to set them up.
Sadly, all of my machines had to be put into storage in my basement. My company moved offices and there was no room for them at the new one (and no room in my house!).
I need to check my notes to find out exactly when Diner arrived. Pretty sure it was in the Fall of 2000 though.
