Looking for a Super Chexx in good shape. I had a deal going with another MAACA member for one, but the seller sold it to someone else while we were still negotiating, so I am still looking for one.
If you have one (or know of one), pm / email with price and details.
I thought that I would end up using the dome, net assemblies, scoreboard, players and gearboxes. The rest should be reasonable to fabricate out of regulard hardware.
One real hang up on making a replica is, unlike mame and pinmame, I haven't seen any software hanging around. It would be simple software just triggering sounds and keeping score, using prox sensors and some microswitches, but I don't write software a whole lot.
It would be a lot of work, but that's the fun of it. I had more fun building my mame cab than I've had playing it.
Must have been to warm, Was the Ice surface melting?

Here are games I would like to acquire this year, or sometime...
24 Iron Man Attack From Mars Prefer Pounded playfield! Monster Bash Prefer Pounded Playfield! Elvis Sopranos Batman Forever Spider-Man Stern Prefer Pounded Playfield!
Have these available for trade or possible sale: Corvette South Park Theatre of Magic Twilight Zone RFM/SW:EP1 Nucore Combo AFM
... unless you were to do something radical, like create fans and stands and boards...
Oh ho ho! See, you guys are the idea people......
Heh. would be a cool idea, but I'm sure not practical to implement. You'd have to put them in the dome which makes them a puck surface or you'd have to put them out of the dome, which just takes up space.
If it's fun and not work, is it still too much work?
I guess along the lines of this thread and what Froskin said today at the meet, if you buy a parts donor, and are looking to get rid of that extra base, or the old tracks, or maybe the rods.... I'm a likely candidate.
