DK 3 to Donkey Kong conversion/resto *FINISHED*
ZORK2:
Next I got out my trusty DeWalt palm sander, 100 grit sandpaper and WENT TO TOWN!!! The one side wasn't THAT bad once the paint was removed. The other side was a mess. I'm guessing all those battle scars were probably the reason someone decided to paint the whole thing black? Also there were a couple bondo areas, it looked like someone attemped to fix a couple bad spots before painting it??
ZORK2:
A quick mix of bondo, sanding got me here....
Alot of battle scars to go, BUT, at least the sweet sight of Donkey Kong Blue is back!!
Note the hammered coin door on the bottom left!!
ZORK2:
MORE BONDO!!
ZORK2:
Next more sanding.......
ZORK2:
One more round of sanding, bondo, and sanding, and she'll be ready for primer!! I got that part in the front of the cabinate fixed that was cracked. I put a bead of wood glue along the edge where the two pieces touched, and then ran in a couple extra screws in. I finished it off with a nice blob of bondo over the crack, one it is sanded and primered, I'm guessing no one will ever know it was even there!!
