    Advanced Cleaning Tips for Inside of Blast City

    I've been slowly disassembling and cleaning my Blast City. The inside of the front and back smell pretty strongly, and when I first left it on for about two hours, it made the room stink for a week. I'd really like to get it as clean as possible while I have it apart. So far, I've sprayed Krud...

    Blast City Bottom Panel Rust Removal

    The bottom panel on my Blast City has a couple pretty substantial rust spots that I'd like to clean up. I got some of the gunkier stuff off with a little steel wool, but the bigger spots need something more powerful. Any suggestions? The kick plate isn't rusty, but I plan to polish it with some...

    Removing Blast City Coin Counter Connector

    I'm taking apart my Blast City for a cleaning, and I have everything but the two connectors under the coinbox (pictured) removed. All the wires going to the IO board are still ziptied together, so I'd prefer to leave the other ends alone and just disconnect these two connectors. Any advice on...

    Blast City Coinbox Door Screw Stripped

    I've been using a Vessel Megadora 980 Impacta P2x100 #2 to take apart my Blast and it's been working great on all the screws so far. It's too long to get the ones that hold the coinbox door in place, so I got this piece of shit Hozan JIS-4 JIS Screwdriver Set with a couple shorter screwdrivers...

    Mounting a Naomi and a CPS2 in a Blast City

    It's a bit tight, but I was able to mount both a CPS2 with a Darksoft multi and a Naomi 1 with Sega IO and @Lemony Vengeance 's CPS2-Sega IO adapter on their own wooden boards and fit them (individually) in my Blast City. Figured I'd post some details here if anyone's ever looking for resources...

    Busted the USB port on my Naomi 2

    MS-9 horizontal collapsing and geometry issues

    Got a cab with an MS9 recently and the monitor seemed DOA. Took it to PNL and they got it back online but now it doesn’t maintain geometry and if you push the image right on the remote board it starts to collapse on its self -the displayed image is noticeably crushed/ more narrow to that side...

    Blast City Monitor Discharge

    I'm taking the monitor out of my Blast to clean everything, so I want to discharge it. I have a high voltage probe from BK Precision. I connected the ground clip to the metal on the chassis and put the pointed tip under the anode, but didn't get any reading on the probe or hear anything. I...

    I'm interested in buying my first cabinet, either an Astro City or a Blast City. I'd prefer local pick up in the greater New England area, but I'd consider shipping from somewhere in the US.

    I recently installed an internally powered subwoofer inside a Blast City and will be installing another identical setup in another Blast due to the great results. If you can find an Ativa D-1051A 5.1 stereo system yo might pick one up. You only need the subwoofer and not the speakers (I found...

    MS-2930 - 15hz horizontal width?

    Blast City with Nanao MS-2930. In 15hz mode (using a cps2 multi), I have about 2 inches on the left and right. I’ve read something about a switch on the chassis to go wide... anyone know about this? I’ve messed with most of the adjustments on chassis and it’s helped with picture quality and...
