Week of 5/4

Week of 5/4/2014
Dr. Who
The Mini playfield stopped working while the game was at the Allentown show.  I pulled the assembly out and took it apart.  The motor seems to be binding at a few spots so I am assuming that the gear box went bad.  While I am ordering parts, I am going to replace some of the other parts that probably are worn by now.

Air Hockey
I found it with an out of order sign on it and two pucks jammed into it.  I think that the puck release motors are wearing out.  I replaced one a while back.  I will buy another and replace the other end.  They are sort of expensive so I hate to just replace them but there really isn't much to repair on them, the motor drives a small plastic rod that blocks the puck when the game is over.

Tic Tac Toe
I found an out of order sign on it but I couldn't find anything wrong with.  I played several games and it always worked fine for me.

Sega Star Trek
I found someone that will repair and rebuild the G08 monitors in this game.  I pulled the monitor out and removed the boards and sent them in for repair before they changed thier minds about repairing those monitors.

Johnny Nero
I finished getting this one ready for location by putting a new plug on it.  The ground prong was gone on the old one.  It is one of those things that I try to make sure that all the games have as it really is a safety item and is easily solved.

Parts
I sorted though a couple of boxes of monitor chassis I had and took several pictures of them to try to get rid of them.  They aren't anything valueable or even in good shape but I hate to throw out parts for the classic games from the 80's.  I have more than I will probably ever use and I need some space so I need to get rid of some of this stuff one way or another.
