Topic: Man - Cave update

Instead of dredging up my moving thread, I thought I would just post a pic or two of how the man-cave/Studio is shaping up.
Ill get one of the TV part once we get our other 5 "decorations" up.  It will be all Hero and Villains, DC and Marvel.

OUR TOYS MAY BE BETTER THAN WE ARE, BUT LOOK AT THE FUN WAITING FOR US !

Re: Man - Cave update

Thanks  guys.  As I said I need to take a clip of the TV side once we get the. last few posters up.  Will probably do a quick vid , its easier that way.  Opposite of where you see the drums is all boxes still! LOLOL

Re: Man - Cave update

Great studio in the making, Beamer ... nice work.

The guitars mounted on the walls with APEX holders is (IMHO) the best way to store them ... I've done the same thing here at. No way to accidentally kick those things over, like with a floor stand. By the height of the window sill, it looks like this basement room isn't far below ground. I hope you plan to install some form of moisture control (humidification / dehumidifier) to keep the humidity levels healthy for your instruments. That's the only drawback to a lower-level room, i.e., damp, cooler air settles downstairs in a house.

You folk will have many enjoyable hours there ... congratulations!

Looks great. After I built mine, I had no room for my guitars.

Re: Man - Cave update

I think that is a  music condo not a man cave, just wait the ironing board will make its way in there and then other things will follow.

OH no, but as I said you are only seeing 1/2 of the long side, the short L side is the TV/ vid game area with the sectional and lots of Marvel and DC posters and pick! smile oh and Ironing bd is in the master bed walk in closet but behind where I did the pic from is book shelves and a dresser we have no room for..She knows Ill fight general BS stuff just like my garages.
I came home from my last cruise to a garage with stuff piled in it.  that lasted a week. then ALL of it ended up on the corner for free or trash.

Re: Man - Cave update

NOT IN THIS HOUSE, THE OLD HOUSE WAS ALL WOOD EVERY WHERE
but that basement carpet wont last long and we will probably put down wood and lots of area rugs.

We are waiting for 2 more posters to get here and then Ill post a vid clip of everything.

Re: Man - Cave update

We've got all wood floors upstairs and all porcelain tile downstairs.  Hard floors makes a difference, but all the walls are drywall and pretty dead sounding.  We used to have a wood paneled wall that was a nice thick heart of pine wood.  That made the sound pretty lively downstairs, but it was lost to a water event and carpenter ants.
