Another Aero City restoration here, but why not. I bought this online on Aussie Gumtree about a month ago. It was for sale for a good couple of months at least. You rarely see these in Australia and although I was taking a break from restoring machines (the Cyber Lead was a mission) I got too...

So after 18 months of waiting I now have two repaired PB-7534-1 chassis. I installed one today and can hear the auto switching working as I change the input on my VGA test dongle. I’m not getting a picture or any static to the tube. I’m worried I’ve necked the tube a few months ago when I tried...

I’m very new at troubleshooting chassis, but as there are no viable repair techs in Australia I’m going to try and do some basic troubleshooting myself. I bought this chassis of YAJ. It looks good at least. No goo, corrosion, hacks or repairs. I’m running it in a Windy II with adaptors. When...

A month or so ago I noticed my Cyber Lead was playing blind. I had sound but no picture. Thinking it was a chassis issue I let it go for a while. I later noticed it was a bit stinky too which I attributed to one of our cats spraying on the machine. Gross I know. So I took the front of the...

Hey all. I just wanted to share something I’ve been wanting to do for a while - which is to put my most frequently used arcade machine tools in a case placed nicely in “shadow foam”. It was fiddy AF but worth it. I used a combination of a razor blade, dremel and router. If I was starting from...

This is one of two I own. I overpaid for it originally as I was given less that honest information from the seller. I did have it up for sale but there were no takers as most wouldn’t be interested in spending the time and money to get it going. But no regrets. I’m going to use it as a learning...

A while back I modified a Noir clone panel on one of my Lindberghs to make use of the Brook UFB. A couple of years later I was going to do something similar to use an RGH Xbox360 in my Blast City. Along came the Mistercade and then the add on Mistercade Admin Board. Even better. So I got...

G’day. Can anyone help me out with the value of the R711 resistor near the flyback on an MS2931? Mine’s corroded and I want to make sure I get the right replacement. It looks like there may be remnants of a gold band there. Thanks in advance.

Hi all. I've acquired and scanned at 600 DPI a Sega Lindbergh Universal Cabinet Japan manual. It does have some differences to the manual for the European stand-up model that's on Arcade Otaku. Hopefully it helps the community with this lovely cabinet...

Can anyone point me to a post or website I recall seeing once that listed 29” tubes and whether they’d fit into various cabs? Thanks in advance.

I’ve been trying to get my coin mech to reliably take ¥100 coins without success. I’m wondering if it’s because it is not an original ¥100 model. See the picture shows BSP 25C. Can anyone tell me what this is? I’ve seen some that show HK dollars, USD and of course yen but not sure what...

I’m looking for one of these to restore my Windy II to original condition. Cheers. PWB405270B

Or do metal tipped insulated screwdrivers serve the purpose. Just building up the toolkit and curious what people thoughts are.

Looking for a Subsino Penguin Brothers willing to post to Australia.

I’ve just powered up my Blast City for the first time since buying it and restoring it. After about ten minutes the monitor goes off. If you turn the off cabinet and back on again the monitor comes back on, but seemingly for a shorter period of time before it goes off again. What could this...

Is there a quick adjustment I can do on the chassis to flip them image? My Raiden Fighters 2 is upside down and I’m not sure that this particular PCB has a switch to rotate it.

Hi all. Some help please as to what this little extra PCB is for in the Lindbergh cabinet. I’ve just restored the cabinet and about to turn everything on - but not sure about this last bit. There’s a couple of connectors that only reach this board - a female four pin and female five pin. See...

G’day. Has anyone ever printed or drawn a typical Sega/Taito style ashtray for their cabinet? There’s similar ones around online but I’m curious if anyones made the “real deal”. Cheers.

Hey all, I put together these panels for my Games Wizard (Vewlix replica). I can't take credit for the Marquee artwork as I found that online, but feel free to print the top and bottom panels. They're more for looks than explaining the game in detail. Not enough room for that! There's some...

Hi all, nothing too spectacular here, but I’m documenting as best I can my take on a SLUC resto/console adaptation. It’s my first arcade project so I’m learning as I go and will need help from those with more know how than I. I’m not using original hardware but making a custom setup for myself...
