Jaleco Pony Mark III 25

The cabs looking lovely Matt. why on earth would you want it powder coated, back to the original colour?

Indeed! I thought you were really happy with the black finish...

re. maximising space....still tight as **** in there but definitely an improvment...

Wouldn't be the original colour. Black or white, I'm undecided. Currently redecorating and black may be a bit too obtrusive.

And no-one noticed Henry

[gargoyle67]

It takes less than 5 minutes to pull the monitor out.

Oh sorry I thought you had to take the whole top off

[gargoyle67]

Just been informed my Pony won't come with any barrel Lock's What sort are they and where can I grab me some with keys also please

[cools]

Standard size, but I think 15/18mm long.

I've got a pile of lock tangs in my spares box, and loads of N5000 (as found on Konami Windy cabs, also fit the Pony perfectly) locks but I'm not certain I can spare any of the latter yet.

[gargoyle67]

No rush yet, Let me know if you get any spare, If not where's the best place to source some

[cools]

Any lock place, there's nothing special about them If I get a chance I'll measure the ones on mine.

I have some spares - they are the same size as the Sega ones - the lock under the CP is the only odd one.

I assume you need cashbox, PCB door & CP lock?

[gargoyle67]

Yes please, At the moment they have not a one PM me with your paypal details or BT and let me know how much to send Assuming they'll fit a Pony25 ok that is, Oh another question while I had you at barrel locks I've found a place that can sand blast and powder coat, How do you make sure they don't block the thread holes if some pony panels have them ?

[penrhos]

The last place I used fitted small rubber cones into the threads as I pointed out where they were & that I didn't want them blocking.

previously Ive put rolled up masking tape into the holes post sand-blasting.

Nice project for the long weekend Needless to say it arrived in a courier van without a tail lift and just the one driver I had to tell the driver how to unload it without smashing it to bits Needless to say I did most of the heavy lifting and organizing said unloading, I built up some empty pallets to cover the foot or so drop from the side door (yes side door as back was blocked ) Anywho all went well and used the handy sack barrow to get the cab from the road to the house.
The monitor is out of a Madonna cab as the original one had a fault when moshpit got the cab, So he replaced it with that, Which according to Hard Candy is a Nanao MS8-25FAR, 25 in, 15/24 kHz ( I haven't looked yet)

I haven't fired it up yet as there are some disconnected jamma wires that I thought I ask about first Pic below:


Over all not bad shape, Needs completely stripping down and sand blasting and then powder coating, I may well go with ninja black

CP is pretty clean don't know how to remove it yet ? :

Sides have normal scrapes:

Nice to see it still has the original loose kick stand, Which will just need fully removing with a paint scraper or something cleaning and then sticking with floor glue or some such adhesive:

The top thing:


So does anyone know what the extra wires are on the jamma connector ? Before I power(blow it up) it up and how do I remove the CP ?
Thanks

[cools]

Nothing important looks disconnected - I bet those are the kick buttons.

Unlock the panel underneath the CP, and push the lever you find inside to release it.

I'd recommend replacing the kick rubber altogether - it's a painted/dyed plastic type, so you'd need to clean it, spray it, then refix it...

[gargoyle67]

Thanks bud, Would you recommend that metal strip type for the kick plate as a replacement then ?

[cools]

I fitted some normal 3mm thick Sega type ribbed rubber to mine.

[FrancoB]

Nice score 'goyle

I have some black ribbed rubber that we use for our machine cabinet tops at work. I can send you some FOC if you want some.

[gargoyle67]

Thanks Franco, I'll prob take you up on your kind offer, Although I'll give you a drink
Just managed to sneak a peak at the tube


Inside the CP:


Whats the best way to clean the bolt covers ? or should I just buy some replacements ?

[virtvic]

You can stick 'em in some kind of rotating chuck (a lathe or a secured drill) and use emery / wet or dry and scotch bright.
I'd personally buy some nice shiny stainless ones!

[FrancoB]

/\ /\ What that man said on both counts

Edit: Okies GG, just let me know what size piece you want. I'll send you an over size bit so you can cut it to size. I presume you will want the ribs running Hori?

[gargoyle67]

Anyone happen to know the name and spec of said bolts ?
She lives, Screen looks really nice and comes on quick and sharp, Although hard to get some nice shots without flash and camera shake Game scrolling doesn't help either
