I had a couple of hours Saturday morning to get the tube swap going. First order of business is to put the cabs side by side so I can just slide the frame from one cab to another Slide the tube from the Point Blank cab, placed it on the Continue Reading
Arcade
Dedicated Point Blank Machine
A dedicated Point Blank machine has been in the “want to buy” for many years. I can now officially say, one of my last grails has been purchased! Time Crisis 1 can now be sold off and this will replace it. Got delivery of this cab last Monday and when Continue Reading
Atomiswave Stereo Amp Upgrade
The last major part is the Stereo Amp. Enter Sega’s 601-10369 Stereo Amp! It’s in a nice cage and has the step down transformer built into it. Prefer to use arcade amps instead of the 12v leppy ones from ebay on these candies if I can. The taito one would Continue Reading
Novelty Cab
It’s been a minute since I posted, mainly because most of the cabs are functional and I’m spending most of the time normally for tinkering on SF6 since my Next Gen upgrade above. For those that aren’t aware, I recently purchased an Atomiswave SD with the plan of it being the direct Continue Reading
Atomiswave To Do List
My to do list was as follows: Stuck with original colour scheme and the CP is looking FRESH! I know 6 buttons isn’t required for a vertical cab, but I figured I might as well do it from the beginning and have it ready if ever this cab goes back Continue Reading

Operation CRT replacement
I hadn’t touched the cab at all this week as I only really wanted to “get into it” once the CRT was replaced. I did try to turn on the cab, but it was definitely dead, it also didn’t make a sound so I was slighly concerned, but that was Continue Reading
New Project – Sammy Atomiswave
It’s been a while since I had a new project A new thread means a new worklog for a new arcade cab! Back when I got the E2, I low key kind of knew that the OCD would eventually get to me and here we are today, the Blast City Continue Reading
Egret 2 – Cleaning, wiring, putting it all back together
The cab has been cleaned as best as I can and the last thing to do is give it a cut and polish, but she’s definitely looking MUCH better than when I first got it. With the chassis arriving back from Joey the other day, it was time to put Continue Reading
Egret 2 – speakers
Let’s talk speakers After using the Logitech Z407’s on my outrun2 cab, I thought this would be a perfect set of speakers to use on this machine to give it that 2.1 upgrade. Trawled through marketplace and found it half price compared to when I purchased mine at Bing Lee Continue Reading
