Punch-Out!! restoration (Complete!!) - new bezel!
Spyridon:
It's cap kit time. I was surprised to see that this game actually had two different monitors in it. The bottom monitor is a Sanyo 20EZ
And the top monitor is a Sharp XM-2001
I purchased the cap kit's from Bob Roberts. Here are the completed monitors waiting to go back into the cab. Need to put the side art on first:
I also cleaned up the interior bezels as they were covered in dust.
Kevin Mullins:
Hehe ... one of each eh ?
Those are about the only two monitors you'll find in an original Nintendo cab.
They both look exceptionally clean as well. :cheers:
ChadTower:
Verify that the caps in the kit are what the paper he includes says. I've gotten wrong caps in several kits from him. Also check against the cap you're taking out that the paper was right to begin with - the paper is usually right but the set of caps in the bag doesn't always match.
Spyridon:
Put the side are on today. I used the dry method as follows:
Line up the artwork in the correct spot and use some masking tape to hold it in place
Next, I peelled back the top two inches of the backing and stuck the art in place. Using a flat surfaced device (a credit card will work), I pushed down to make sure the art was stuck in place with no air bubbles. I did this from side to side as I slowly pulled the backing off.
Once the backing was completely removed, I went over it again making sure it was down and had no air bullbles.
Then the removal of the protective covering
Repeat for side 2:
I used an exacto knife to cut holes in the side art where the monitor carrige bolts had to go. I then put the monitor brackets back in place.
Spyridon:
Next, I put the monitors back in place
And the bezel plexi and control panel
While I was hooking up the monitor, I also removed the batteries from the board. I was going to replace these with an off board solution, but from what I've herad, these batteries are only used for book keeping info. I won't need this for home use so off they go
