Looks like a good candidate for a JAMMA duo unit ;)

Just take it all the way out of the shell, mount it on a board... oh yeah it could be sweet!

Whatever chop can do, I will go with..  lol.  Least I can laugh now.  I was so pissed earlier that I was speechless...  Trust me, that means I was plenty pissed....

Hard to believe a hair dryer can do that kind of damage that fast! A moment of silence for the passing of this poor Duo...

you could always buy a junk duo from Japan off of ebay and recycle the shell.

That will be an option considered at a later date...

Oh Bernie.... :( You have my condolences.  I can't imagine how I'd feel if I saw my Duo looking like that.  At least it's going to good hands.  If anyone can help you out, it's Chop.

Do you set a *running* hair dryer down while it was pointed at the Duo? You're lucky you didn't burn down your house.

Damn Bernie... Sucks. :\ I would've expected this from a general heat gun, not a blow dryer, but yeah, I guess you decided to walk away for a bit... Bad move...

Maybe this will make ya feel better on the dummy scale though, but I once "walked away" from leaving water running to fill a sink and thinking the overfill drain was working well enough, so for my troubles, I partly destroyed $15k in remodeling work I had done to the bathroom under the floor below me... That was not a happy day, lemme tell ya... :( Let's just say, I had to do some more work and go with nice, new ceiling tiles instead of solid, smooth, painted drywall as I did before... But yeah, if you "set something in motion," let's say, it's probably best that you don't walk away lest you momentarily forget about it (good e.g., throwing pizza in an oven, ya know, old ones without digital shutoff timers)...

Fire it up!
hah.
get it.
Fire.





Like that guy said: "Best dance moves in the history of music." Hahaha! I gave 'im another thumbs up.

It might even be possible to find a dead unrepairable Duo (I know there have been a few) and simply buy the shell from the previous owner.

Sorry to hear that Bernie. Glad to hear chop is coming to the rescue. I am confident that this story will have a happy ending.

Was the hair dryer set to low heat?
