Well, I've been sick for the past 2 weeks. Not fun at all. I had a 101F temp for 5 days. I'm now at the end of it and just have to deal with the Sinus issues. Yuck.

I've been making progress on my "Secret" project. It's coming along nicely, but it's costing me a lot more then I had first anticipated. I'm sure I'll be happy with the end result though and will still be cheaper then if I had bought one out right. Only time will tell what it is :-)

Picked up a few more things. I got an NOS Pengo Overlay that is in OK shape, but not great. It has some cracking and is a little roughed up, but it's about a billion times better then what I have currently on my Pengo.

Picked up a Donkey Kong 3 Control Panel. I'm not a huge fan of DK3 (I actually think they shouldn't have made the game), but I have the parts to put one together. If you're going to have DK and DK JR, might as well have the bastard step child DK3 as well.

I picked up a QIX boardset with Control Panel and Marquee. I am considering converting the QIX boardset to a Zoo Keeper boardset if I cannot get a hold of a real ZK set. I am working on that though! I do like QIX so I don't want to convert it unless I have to.

So my Galaga died today...
 
I'm not sure if it's coincidence or related, but I was turning the power off on my Defender by the power switch under the control panel at the exact time it failed. The switch was a bit tough to toggle so it was like in the half way position when it happened. Both games are on the same circuit.

Restoration/Preservation has begun on my Kickman.
 
It's not a full restoration, but more of a preservation of what is there.  I like trying to keep things as original as possible.  With that in mind, I can take a few chances on this one as the damage is already done.  I'm mainly trying to prevent even more damage when I can.  Worse comes to worse, I'll do a full restore on it down the road.
