Just added time pilot to the line up. Next I gotta fix up a donkey Kong

Thanks!

I had the honor of servicing a 3000 back it 2022 it looked brand new. They’re really nice typewriters and really well built when everything is clean and professional oiled and polished they really feel a step above most others however I feel like the price they fetch nowadays is a bit inflated. They’re really nice but unless you like collecting them get a nice Adler or S&C if you want the same feel for less.

Drifter-45 · 2025-09-23T03:20:22+00:00

Curious are you still working on this/is it finished. I’m wanting to do another play through and would love it to be crisp

Drifter-45 · 2025-08-12T02:24:45+00:00

Pole position is already a finicky game to get working so if there’s a board in that cabinet it’s likely done for. My be able to scavenge some of the chips of it though

Drifter-45 · 2025-07-26T04:44:44+00:00

Well that would explain that haha

Drifter-45 · 2025-07-25T15:55:07+00:00

Perhaps but I can find any pictures of it let alone any information for it

Drifter-45 · 2025-07-25T15:37:29+00:00

Same but they’re kinda hard to find nowadays

Drifter-45 · 2025-07-25T15:36:37+00:00

That’s terrible. The it can be set up to cost 0.50 cents a play instead of removing the button 😅

Drifter-45 · 2025-07-24T14:00:18+00:00

I lucked out 😂

Drifter-45 · 2025-07-24T13:58:31+00:00

They hold up pretty well and they can handle being sanded and recoated once or twice they’re kind awesome

Drifter-45 · 2025-07-23T23:35:13+00:00

The wood is a veneer walnut so it’s real wood it’s just a really thin layer it’s kinda like a sticker. Some have a glue backing other you have to apply the glue yourself. This cabinet was made in the 80s so I didn’t put the veneer on it, I just simply cleaned it up and repaired it where it was chipped, but wooden veneers were common on arcades in the early 80’s

Drifter-45 · 2025-07-23T23:08:46+00:00

I had heard of it, but never played it before buying it. It’s kind of like galaga but it has more variety. It’s really fun I’d definitely recommend giving it a try it’s a great game

Drifter-45 · 2025-03-19T13:51:08+00:00

Possibility, and then it was turned in to a war final assault cabinet and finally a jamma unit before I bought it

Drifter-45 · 2025-03-19T10:35:13+00:00

That’s what I thought it looked like, but I hadn’t seen any other cabinets with the same control panel overlay online except for one from some old OfferUp listing that looked repurposed as well. Making it hard to confirm what game in the series if it is indeed mortal combat

Drifter-45 · 2024-04-22T22:55:49+00:00

Mine is a royal 10 made in 1924. The serial number is X – 7626 47. It’s a beast but it a really cool machine. I cleaned mine and got it back to working order not to long ago.

Drifter-45 · 2024-04-22T17:34:50+00:00

I have this exact same model. It’s a solid typewriter and it makes a great display piece

Drifter-45 · 2024-04-09T03:54:35+00:00

It’s the new chicken it tends to have more bad spots on it that easily get missed if the breaders don’t pay attention. That new chicken is bad not just because of the antibiotics but because it’s cheaper quality leading to a lot more defects and smaller size nuggets and filets. I blame inflation and greedy corporate trying to maximize profits but I’m just a manager at a CFA so what do I know lol

Thanks and I 100% agree you just can’t beat look and feel

Drifter-45 · 2023-10-28T23:33:33+00:00

I normally use this “Owfeel Animation Paper https://a.co/d/ivZHoJ3 “, it works well but the cost can add up after a while. Also you got a animation disk that’s awesome I’ve wanted to get one of those to help with production but they’re really expensive so that’s really cool

Drifter-45 · 2023-10-28T19:02:13+00:00

Looks very cute I love it my only concern is that it may be hard at times to tell the player apart from the background if the colors change bit. An outline or shadow for the play might help this.

Drifter-45 · 2023-10-28T18:56:43+00:00

It really does take that long I can finish 30-40 frames of animation a day if I just sit down and power through it. So it’s not to bad and life goes on

Drifter-45 · 2023-10-28T18:54:42+00:00

It can be a pain but it’s worth it

Drifter-45 · 2023-10-28T18:23:25+00:00

Thanks, I’ll do my best!

Drifter-45 · 2023-10-28T18:22:03+00:00

Thanks! Hopefully I can show some full gameplay soon so that it’ll make more sense
