Atomiswave To Do List

Atomiswave trivial update

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

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

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

Rhythm Tengoku – Control Panel part 2

As previously mentioned, I had planned to wire harness with a JAMMA edge like this: @LemonyVengeance gave me the idea of bypassing the JAMMA edge and just wire it directly to the Blast City I/O. Due to the sheer amount of wire I needed, I figured it would be cheaper to Continue Reading

Egret 2 – Rotation Mech

Rotation Mech Time to rotate! After all, this is what the Egret is renowned for right? What a VERY nerve wracking experience that was to turn. Give me a frame, lift and turn any day of the week hahaha. I needed to make sure most of the cable ties were Continue Reading
