Hey there, hi there, ho there. I haven’t done much of anything in quite a while on Pac-Man. I’ve been busy with other projects, and have been holding off on it a bit to figure out what I’m going to do about the sideart.

I was planning on buying a new control panel from Arcadeshop.com for $125 (ouch!). I recently saw a used one on eBay and ended up winning it for $2.25.

I’ll need to strip it, fill the extra holes, refinish it, and put a new CPO on it. I’m on the lookout for a good deal on a CPO, so if you see one let me know.

While grabbing the pic for this from my Pac-Man pictures folder, I spotted the pics of the cabinet after I stripped the black paint off it and before I got it down to bare wood. It really made me miss seeing the cabinet with art on it…I may need to get moving on this one soon!
