Today I stripped off the atrociously ugly Radikal Bikers side graphics. It looks so much better already. I need to get some of that wood putty stuff to make a couple very minor repairs to gouges and fill old bolt holes, then a light hand sanding in preparation of the major painting operation next week.
I put the Logitech speakers in place with the intention of seeing what I needed to do to mount them, but they fit so nicely already, I think they'll be fine resting in place.
I also need to get a lighting unit to backlight the marquee. Oh, and... get a marquee.
In the mail yesterday I received my
Smart Strip surge protector. Man is it neat. The way I have it set up, when I press the power button on the TV remote, all the components of the arcade will turn on - TV, Computer, Speakers, and Lights. I dabbled with the idea of pressing the coin slot and having it turn on the system, but I like the TV remote just fine.
I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I like the light.
