Galaga upright restoration

(1/9) > >>

kayoteq:
Acquired during the recent free-stuff fest seen elsewhere on the site, I have managed to drag a mostly complete Galaga (sans CRT) and spare parts aplenty. In anticipation of the cabinets impending dumpster doom, I have also gotten the power supplies and control panels off the other cabs. My scissors remained in the car, I promise.

Click here to view it.. haven't seen one before? :)

So hopefully I have all the power sources necessary, along with the wires to do so. 1 chip is labelled bad on the board, I am indifferent, having the bliss of having a intact galaga CPU board.


Lacking the CRT, i browsed the pile and extracted a broken Pac CRT frame and set that among my absconded parts.

Too many at once, eh, but this was spur-of-the-moment 'you're throwing THAT away??  :o

Though Im super pissed that I am in central illinois, Im very glad to see someone saved this gem. Good show!

I saw quite a few monitors in that pile, why don't you grab a few?

Unfortunately, most every CRT you see there has had the neck broken. Neighbor said they did it post-trash piling. One of the basic problems in prepping a monitor for trash pickup.. gotta break that vaccum.

I may go back there for one last run through and get the analog boards off the CRT chassis for the 'known' models that I have '19
or maybe I'll find one or two  that  hasn't had the bad hammer fix.

Hey, if you see any Sanyo 20-EZ or K7000 chassis...
