Hey, we had mame get together for my pc club http://www.k-lug.org recently (Rochester Minnesota) and we may be having a more formal session coming up...Sorry I didn't know about this forum earlier...but if you want to travel north I'll try to remember to give you a hollar.

A friend and I are going hunting for gutted arcades in the Twin Cities soon, just found a possible contact...but if you know of a source for arcade carcasses, we could head south too. (Thinking of starting a restoration project next)

Reviving an old thread. I would have started a new one, but then there would just be two identical threads.

Anyway, fast forward 5 years from the original post.

I wonder how many people are in Iowa at all, not just Eastern Iowa.

I was in the Dubuque area with my first cabinet. I moved to Des Moines about 8 years ago, sold that cabinet and built my current one. I then moved a year ago to Marion (next to Cedar Rapids) and am currently fixing my cabinet (computer failure) and hope to be back in operation in a few days.

I also have 3 pachinkos, and a Theatre of Magic pinball. Not the biggest game room, but it is fun.

When I am not enjoying these games, I can often be found sitting in my home theater.

I'm located in Pleasant Hill Iowa. There are a few guys in Iowa over on the KLOV forum.

Theater of Magic. Very nice. :cheers:

nickbuol:
Pleasant Hill? Really? When I said "Des Moines" I really lived in Pleasant Hill. On Greenwood Avenue...

I live in West Des Moines, but I haven't even built my first cab yet. I'm been reading for years and was just getting ready to order some parts and my townhouse caught fire (neighbor house started it and it migrated to my house). I would love to get together and see what other have done and perhaps get some help/guidance as I build my cabinet.
