Pinges Basement, Workshop and random junk

[retrocab]

yep fridge with light problem solved

Wohoo, another game room on the way. Nothing beats a white canvas, it´s so much easier to add colors later, if that´s what you prefer!
Looking forward to more updates!

OK!
So I thought I might aswell share a few pictures from my present gameroom/storage in our apartment, a few of the games are moved to the basement!
This room is under construction, so sorry for the mess.

As you can see in one picture there is some wall/floorfixing involved in this process, this is beacuse I scraped three closets that took to many precious square meters.
The plan is to use this as a workshop, so i can work with the games there before they are basement ready.
The workbench I just got, costed me like 20€  , I have one more that I plan to place next to this one eventually, then i might get a more permanet setup to learn how to actually fix something

Ok, so most of the walls and the roof is painted, still have to get someone to fix the not finished wall.

Got my workbenches and some shelfes up anyways, and i have actuallt already spent a couple of nights here testing PCB:s and monitors

This is a nice looking workspace.

I have a small room where I placed some of my cabs in and I know troubles about renovating rooms ( for example, my wall paint was called loam paint = you have to wash (( and  I mean wash with a rag )) the whole walls or new paint wont stick on it ).

So good job!

Looks great a proper place to work (and leave your work undisturbed) is so cool. I'm so luckey with my toolroom.

[Pinge]

I have worked a little every night here now, love to have a dedicated place to be eventhough i get fuck-all out of my hands.

But I have tested a few monitors with mixed results and are eager to keep up the pace anyways.
Prepare for alot of quiestions about oddball monitors and bootleg pcb:s in the near future.

OK, so here it is....
I made a short video about two weeks ago... and then I watched it and felt redicilously stupid... why?
Cause I (try to) talk english so you guys here on DLF should understand....

But what the heck, you can have the link...

And It happend a bit more since then but nothing really worth sharing at the moment.... i spend some time in the workshop try to learn how to fix things anyways... and I really really enjoy the late nights down there alone with the radio on to keep me company...

Nice video! Please make more of them if you can. 

[Pinge]

haha, careful what you wish for!
I can hopefully get my two associates Kralleman and RogerXY to make a video sometime in the not to distant future... we have loads of games and things to show you...

[Andreas_AUT]

Can only agree with slowcade, your english is very good, continue making videos please 

By the way, since I have that missile command project too, I realized that on your cab, the stickers on the backglass are missing. You can order them very cheap here: http://www.gamestencils.com/misc-game-art/missile-command-bezel-text

Thanks!

I know about the stickers... have to fix that soon, I appreciate the link.

It just feels wierd to spea english when there is no foreigner around.... but I will make another video someday

[Superully]

love the video , keep 'em coming! it's always great to see other people's places "live", so much better than just pure pictures!

[Arch]

Cool video, Pinge!

[Pinge]

Thanks, might do another soon, especially since I now have som working games down there.... to bad I forgot my stepdown in Gothenburgh so i cant play DK or Ms Pac at the moment

And in the workshop there is only two games left to work on... PunchOut/Pc10 and Pac man (Pac is not mine but I have started to work on it and are waiting for caps and some other parts for the monitor)
