[Tfug] FTGH: Arcade pieces

Hi,

I need room for a bigger workbench.  So, I need to
get rid of a couple of pinball machines and at least
one upright video.

I'm looking for suggestions for suitable "charitable
organizations" (Boys Club, etc.).  Nothing with a
religious affiliation, please.

However, arcade pieces need routine/periodic care.
So, the ideal recipient woud be an organization that
can monitor their use (otherwise, they tend to get
beat on and break often).  And, hopefully, they'll
have some regular staff (volunteer or otherwise)
that would be capable of performing the simple
repairs that always come up.  (this isn't rocket
science but it isn't auto mechanics, either!)
I don't want to have to support them.  And, without
someone doing these things, they're usually "broken"
within a few months.  :<

I'll make sure they are "crippled" to only work on
"free play".  (I'll probably pull the coin mechanisms
entirely since I can use them on other machines).

I might be able to arrange transportation for them within
Tucson but would prefer not having to go "way out west,
southwest, etc.".

Contact me offlist, please.
