Bringing a Naomi back to life
« on: January 05, 2013, 10:22:20 pm »
This is my first post here.
I found this SEGA Naomi for $50 near my house, it was completely gutted and it seems that at some point some pet made a nest out of it. I never seen one of these and I wanted a cab.
Here is an album of what I done so far.

Welcome to the forum!
That cab is a good cab to work with.

What a steal! You did some great work on this :applaud: I'd love to grab a cab with that kind of form factor.

The seller deliver it to my driveway!
I spend an hour pounding a sheet of metal today, I am making the lid for that back compartment, also I am not totally happy with the cover I put behind the LCD so I might make a new one. All the wiring is almost ready, I just like to install a 12 feet extension cord.
