A few years ago DADsFME almost closed its doors for good. Wizard had said "No more MFME" and the site and particularly its staff were getting all kinds of shit from various people and I kind of lost heart in it all. FME at that point wasn't in a great place. What really saved DADsFME was a message from Alex (aamusements) from Fruit-Emu who offered host the site for free and even offered to purchase the domain name from me which he eventually did. This arrangement continued for several years right up to a few weeks back when I noticed the the dadsfme.co.uk domain name was within a month of expiring, that together with the latest batch of outages got me a little concerned and the fact that for whatever reason Alex has been a little quiet of late. Obviously, I hope he's OK and everything is fine but I thought it was time for a change. I really want to say a personal 'thank you' to him at this time for his support for all these years and I hope there's no hard feelings for jumping ship as it were. If it wasn't for you DADsFME would not be still around so "thanks very much Alex"!! This brings me to the new arrangement.. DAD's is now hosted by Reg @ Desert Island Fruits who very kindly made an offer to support the site by moving it over to his more secure server. I once again own the domain name which as mentioned in the thread title is now 'dadsfme.com' so it might be a good idea to update your bookmarks. The move was done by 'Pete W' who runs the Mecca to massive thanks to both of you, hopefully this new arrangement will continue for many years to come. Long live FME

Glad they went to a good home, was a test of the printers and although good expensive. Like me though, it’s not about money it’s about making them good Glad your happy. Look forward to seeing them fitted mate.

Hi Barrie thank you for the reel bands they look great 👍,I will be popping down hobby craft over the next couple of days to try and find some suitable black backing plastic or paper to block the tube light out like you said , anyway thanks again mate and your hard work is very much appreciated cheers dave 🍻

Barcrest crystal maze team edition.No keys and its locked,but screen comes on and fan blows in the dome.Another project.Soon see inside as i need to cut bsttery off.So may drill it tomorrow.

Ok thanks I will order some. Yeah exactly right. 5V Linear regulator was fine checked the 12V coming in and that was ok, looked for dry joints or potential component failure but nothing, some of the transistors had gone swapped them out for some I had in my repair stock (near enough direct replacements) and all in cracking order now. Had a little play now that I can see the feature board!!

UPDATE! MUX 5 is fixed. Repaired and fully functional now (if anyone needs help repairing one let me know. Note: you will need a half decent multimeter to make this possible). So just waiting for refill key to see if I can now turn the volume up. I need to buy some bulbs for 5 blown ones. It looks like they run from 34v but most bulbs are 12v out there ( I will double check this ). Any suggestions??

Not bad for a freebie all keys are with it and loads of extra signs to lower or increase the jackpot or cost to play

Sometimes you've just got to do what you've got to do. Some of my hi-fi setup would probably make 'enthusiasts' upset but it works for me and doesn't sound shite to my ears

Thank Jonno mate, i just asked them to print them again No credit for the high quality of scanning and cleaning.... They do look the dogs, hope i can do the same justice with backlit....

here it is powered up and done.very hard game
