Spray that crap with a bleach based cleaner ASAP. Don't take a chance of the spores getting into your HVAC system and spreading throughout the house! The price is ok (perhaps a bit high for the cab itself), but if the marquee is in good shape, that makes it worth $10 on it's own. Not sure what I would do with the cab myself. With the mold situation and my wife allergic, I'd never be able to bring it home. |

Take the best side clean it up, patch it, then use it for a template to cut 2, Then replace the bottom with new wood. It"s lots of work.... but that"s what Jenni would do. |

The stuff cleaned off easily with some bleach water. As far as the cab goes, I figure that this will be good practice for when I redo the Taito cab (which is seen in the first pic). I have never worked with MDF or particle board, so there won't be much to lose if I mess this up. I'm quite certain that the damage to the machine would have caused it to be sledgehammer fodder for most people. :P -Rob |

Just thought I'd drop in a quick update, to indicate that I think I may have saved it. Stripped of it's woodgrain & cut down 6.5 inches: New wood! And a closeup of the repaired section (front panel is just sitting there @ the moment): I'm quite pleased & look forward to working on a somewhat more solid frogger! I'll start a regular build thread going in the "projects" section when I make some notable progress. :D -Rob |
