I made this video on our camping trip this weekend. It’s about a 2 hour span crammed into 24 seconds. Pretty cool… This app on my phone is the coolest thing ever.

I used iMotion on my iPhone to create this short time lapse video. It snapped a picture every 30 seconds. The playback is 15 frames per second. Pretty cool little app. I can already imagine a bunch of uses for this.

I’ve always wanted to take a ride on one of these. We beat the rain and got a really nice ride in. We even got to get off the boat and walk around in the swamp water. It felt like pudding. It was pretty cool. Here are some videos Continue Reading »

After a few hours of wiring my new cocktail is up and running. Now it has 60 games on it, all the classics. It was a bit intimidating at first seeing the entire JAMMA harness and not knowing where anything goes but after studying some paperwork a few minutes it all made sense. I just need to do some tweaking wiring a few more things and monitor adjustments and I’ll be ready to tackle the control panels. I’ll be replacing them with new units, switches, and buttons.

I just picked up a Ms. Pac Man cocktail. This is the first arcade game I’ve ever owned. I’ve spent a few years looking for a Ms. Pac Man cocktail. It’s in great cosmetic shape. The only thing that bugs me is the control panel. At some point someone hacked up the original art and added a few buttons to convert it to a 60 in 1. I plan to replace the art with something nice and put some proper buttons on it so all 60 games work. The game could also use a new JAMMA wiring harness since the last conversion wasn’t the cleanest thing. I’ll update the site once I progress on the restoration.
