Black Knight by Williams

Picked up a really nice Black Knight yesterday.

It's recently shopped and fully working, so I really don't have to do anything to it... feels kinda funny since most of my games are in bad shape when I get them. :-)

Victory by Gottlieb

Traded a Taito Space Gun arcade cabinet for a dead Gottlieb Victory the other day! Does this game have the WORST backglass ever? I think so, but it's a Gottlieb, so I guess I have to stand it for some time :-)

ProbeScope
A new little thingy added to my misc stuff page today.

Pinball Playfield

This playfield from an old parted out Lost World pinball will be used as a table at my place. But before that I'll have to strip the entire playfield and REALLY clean it... I'll probably clearcoat it a couple of layers as well.

Pinball page updated
A few updates to my pinball page today.

Yet another old pinball
Traded some PCB's for this nice old Star Trek by Bally.

New page added to site
Yes, the first draft of my Related Stuff page is online. So far only one item described there, but as ususual there will be more when I feel like adding more info :-)

Swords of Fury updated
I've added a picture of the stripped playfield on Swords of Fury. More pictures of the progress when I remember to take them...

I'm still alive...
Ok, just a quick update to let you know that I'm still alive. :-)
I've been insanely busy the last couple of months, and I have sold off some of my arcade cabinets to finance two more pinballs - a The Simpsons Pinball Party by Stern and an old Motordome by Bally/Midway. I'll try to take some better pictures and update my pinball page some day as well.

Happy new year to you all!

Another old pinball
I picked up my fifth pinball the other day - a Haunted House by Gottlieb.
Read more about it on my pinball page.

Rampart by Atari
I've updated my arcade cabinet page with my second Rampart cabinet I got yesterday.

First draft of my PCB collection page
Another update today - I've decided to put the first draft of my PCB collection page online. Remember that it's just a test, and doesn't contain very much yet... but at least it's there :-)
Only a fraction of my games are listed yet, but more will follow when time permits.

Cascading Style Sheet again
I finally managed to solve the problem I had with pictures floating over into the next box if they are higher than the text in the same box. Earlier I had to fix this manually with ugly <br> tags, but that's history now.
Again, you probably won't notice any difference.. but trust me, they are there :-)

Commando by Capcom
Yet another fine Capcom classic arrived the other day!
It's pretty dirty right now, but once I get the time to wash it I think it will be as new again.

Cascading Style Sheet
Made some changes to the style sheet of this site.
Hopefully you won't notice so many of them, the most obvious being that the page is now centered in the browser. (in Firefox that is, I really don't care about the horrible Internet Exploder. It's not my fault it doesn't work the way it's supposed to)

Hitachi Oscilloscope Model V-550B
Finally, an oscilloscope for me to play around with.
Let's hope I still remeber something about how to use one of these - it must be close to 15 years since I last used one for anything useful.
Anyway, it's a fun thing to have! :-)

Added logo to page
Added a nice logo to my site today!
Many thanks to Folkow from who did most of the job for me - I simply resized the image and added some borders to make it fit in on my site.

Kicker & Rygar boards
Ok, these arrived a week or so ago, but I haven't had the time to update for a while.
Anyway, to the left is a Kicker (aka Shao-Lin's Road) by Konami and to the right is a Rygar by Tecmo. Taito Gun
A positional gun used in various Taito gun games, eg Operation Wolf 3. It's in pretty bad shape, but I only bought it to get some spare parts for my other two guns of the same type. Those will be perfect with a few parts from this baby!

Gun.Smoke by Capcom
A Capcom Gun.Smoke and matching marquee arrived today! :-)
The marquee will be used in a lightbox when I get the time to build one, and the PCB is in really great shape.

New pin, IGS PGM motherboard and a NOS plastic for ToTAN
A couple of fun items have arrived today (actually, yesterday too but I didn't have time to update then).
First is my fourth pinball, a Swords of Fury by Williams. It's in pretty bad shape, but I will do my best to fix her up nicely during the next couple of months.
Also new is an IGS PGM motherboard and a NOS Bazaar plastic for my ToTAN.

Dead Angle by Seibu Kaihatsu
Another game I had forgot all about until I found it for sale at ArkadTorget for a reasonable price.
I used to play this game quite a lot when I was younger, and firing it up in one of my arcade cabinets brings back a lot of memories, as does so many games that I buy...

Added an arcade cabinet page
Another update today - I've started a page about my arcade cabinets. Only one cabinet there yet, but the rest will follow as soon as I find the time and / or inspiration for it.

Atari System 1 & Road Blasters
An Atari System 1 motherboard and a Road Blasters System 1 cartridge. They are yet untested, but both looks very nice so they'll probably work just fine.
Unfortunately, The Road Blasters cart is not of the same revision as my first Road Blasters cart, so I don't think I can use this to get my other one running. The EPROM's are not the same and several patch cables are different between the two revisions.

Some pinball stuff
Some replacement/spare parts arrived today. Finally the plastic protection kit for Twilight Zone is here :-)

Third magnet for Twilight Zone
It's here - the third magnet for my Twilight Zone. I wonder when I will get the time (and nerves) to actually install it in my game... The third magnet mod is NOT a simple mod and requires a lot of time and patience to finish. I don't think I'll get the time or energy to try it until sometime later in the autumn/winter.

Pinball Page
Added some info about my pinballs. Mostly information about my Twilight Zone though...

New PCB
I've just picked up my latest PCB at the post office - a Solomon's Key in ok shape. Unfortunately it's a bootleg, but the quest to get an original continues...

PHP
Today I changed this page to PHP. That way I could separate the different parts of the page to different files. This might not sound like such a big deal, and I suppose it isn't... but thanks to this I can now create other pages with the same look and feel, but the menu to the left for instance can be kept in one central file.

New look
I've changed the entire look of this page to something much nicer. At least, that's what I think. :-)
Still no nice logo for the site though... if you have some ideas or the talent to help me out, please let me know.

It's alive!
Ok, so this is my first attempt to create my own space on the internet. As for now it doesn't contain very much, but in the future this site will probably mostly be about my hobby - collecting arcade games and pinballs.
Feel free to drop in anytime! Who knows, someday there might actually be something of interest here :-)
