The Egret light panel was copied by her from hand and then custom stitched and painted, she's pretty talented! She also hand stitched each of the Taito logos.
That is impressive indeed. When I first looked at them on my phone I thought they were cutouts to reveal the original decals of the cab behind!
Haha, I'll let her know that her skills have fooled another E2 owner it does mean that she knows she's in for more grief if and when I track down a Canary

The covers? My mother in law was a seamstress and made them custom for my 40th birthday a few years ago. They are fully washable and made with blackout material to prevent any sun bleaching, they also house a Taito stool The Egret light panel was copied by her from hand and then custom stitched and painted, she's pretty talented!

Yeah sorry the covers I meant. Amazing. She could potentially make a mint
Finally figured out camera settings to take a true to life photo of the Electrohome G07 in my Galaxian. Recapped, new flyback, adjusted properly. It's glorious.

Interesting to me is that the same game on a 25 year younger TV has an entirely different and quite drab appearance. The old screen exhibits some flaws/qualities that enhance the simple sprite work, and the starfield positively glows under the tinted screen cover.

Easy to forget that games were developed using the sort of screens they were designed to be played on. Extreme example, Donkey Kong Country looked way better on my old composite CRT than it does on Switch.
Great in summer though!.. Not many folk with a Lindy in the back garden!!..
Great shed too... With the Barby on the go and a few beers.. Heaven in the back garden!
Agreed Pete.. Another Lindy then and link them.
Looks good but that could easily be fixed by adding to the studs and insulate from inside, vapor barrier, and slap on some OSB or drywall (or both). That goes for the roof as well if you dont have anything there.
Flooring is trickier depending on the foundation but thick carpeting/vapor barrier and a dehumidifier will go a long way. Add some simple oil filled radiator on low setting and you will keep your stuff safe for along while. Not to mentioned added comfort.
