Chicken Sh!t cabinets. * 1 construction pic added*
spacies:
Someone rang me a while back and said they had found 6 cocktail machines in a barn.
They were empty and had been sitting there for 20 years.
So I got him to send me a pic.
:censored: :censored: Was what I bleated upon seeing said cabinets.
I would have passed on the deal but he said he will send them to me free and the deal would be for me to restore one and send it back and I would keep the other 5.
Now I hate to see a cabinet of any description rot in some old barn. So I agreed.
I came home about 10pm one night to find 6 ugly black cabinets sitting on my front lawn and it was about to rain.
A few deep breaths and nasty thoughts of kids who picked on me at school and I carried them 1 by 1 , 30 metres to my workshop.
They have sat there for the past month getting in my way so yesterday and today I got the worst one out and hit it.
It was caked full of chicken, bird, rat and mouse ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- and about 1/4 of dust.
Disgusting. :censored:
Anyway, here is the results after replacing 1 end and the whole top section.
(It was the top right cabinet in the pic above.)
Its not quite finished but only another day and it will be done.
Just some wiring, screwing things down and fitting the legs which have now been chromed.
I guess it has been worth it now after seeing the results.
NEXT!!!
spacies:
I may not be around soon.
Probably contracted H5N1 from this resto :laugh2:

Wow!!! You did an amazing job on the restoration. I normally don't like those style cabs but I'd take that one any day. :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:
:cheers:

Very nice! Is that a 19" or 13" monitor in there? Arcade monitor or PC monitor? MAME or actual Galaga PCB (with the extra button i'm guessing MAME?)...
I'd be impressed had you worked on it a couple weeks let alone a couple days.
Amazing bro!
