Pac-Man Upright Restoration
Muffindude:
Just got the fuse holders for the transformer section, hope to get the other parts today or soon.

His method deviates from the original wiring, opting to use a switching power supply instead of the old linear power supplies found in the original wiring. I'd highly recommend converting to a switching power supply in that cab when you restore it. It will save you headaches later.

The Power supply area of my Pacman is still in tact, and I'll use the old linear supply, but thanks for the info.

Good job. I for one am a fan of the old Linears.
It's original, easy to repair, and more reliable in the long run.
Muffindude:
Ok, just got some more of the parts.
I have recieved:
- Fuse Holder
- Marquee
- Bezel
- T-Molding
- Locks
- Legs
- PCB
I have some more stuff that I have to receive, like the joystick.
Apparently my photos are too large, so I'll be posting them later.

Good luck with the restore, these extreme make overs are fun to watch. The link to my Pac-man restore is posted above. Check that out as it may answer a lot of your questions.
