Into the final stages of this project. It took a couple of attempts, but I’ve come to the conclusion when I use a NetDimm on the Blast City PSU, I can’t use it on a single PSU. I’ve been told to do a re-cap on the PSU which “should” fix Continue Reading

Blast City – Pushed through
Push through last night and installed the cp and 3 button harness just to get going! Happy to report everything is working properly! Here’s a quick test run with DDP DOJ on IGS PGM One issue I have (and a lot of blast city owners) is corner convergence. Not much Continue Reading
Blast City – It’s alive!
This weekend that just passed, I set myself the goal of “just getting the shell screwed in to the base” as the shells had “dried*” *more on that later. The wiring deceivingly took WAAAAY longer than I expected as I decided I would take out all the old clips and Continue Reading
Blast City – Hiatus
Wow, it’s been 4 months since I last updated! I haven’t really had much motivation to finish it off, I had one cab in its place with the rest of the cabs which made me really delay the finishing of the other cab. With that said, I recently sold off Continue Reading
Blast City – Speaker Replacement
Not much has been happening, we’ve had terrible weather the last few weeks and I just cbf atm.. lol The only thing I’ve worked on are the speakers.

Blast City – Prepping for primer
Managed to get some a few hours worth of work on the weekend. First had to spray the decal residue with some IPA The next 3 hours were spent on hand sanding/feathering on all the areas that had flaking. Gave it a good clean with wax and grease remover before Continue Reading
Blast City – Flaking
I hit a snag the other night I started cleaning the second cab and as I gave it a good wipe down, the paint just started flaking off, and it got worse and worse as I cleaned more.. The initial thoughts were “touch up”, but what started like this… Ended Continue Reading
Blast City – Elbow Grease
Since the first cab is now confirmed operational, this cab seemed to be the better condition cab so I gave it a good clean! It’s amazing what some elbow grease and a magic eraser can do! I personally like some “war wounds” on the cab so I decided to keep Continue Reading
Blast City – Wiring
Now I sorted out the monitors, it was time to start making my way onto the cab and seeing what else needs to be fixed. First off the rank was power. I needed to figure out what was the status of the power. This cab is 100v, so I purchased Continue Reading
Blast City – Monitor 2930
So this post will be about the 2930! As mentioned in the previous post, when I plugged in the 2930 all I got was a blue image, I couldn’t get any Red or Green bias dialled in. When I reached out to Joey who said check the transistors which I Continue Reading
