Logan's Gameroom
« on: October 15, 2008, 08:41:31 PM »
Howdy guys,

the day has finally come, today I started with the preperations for my gameroom (does Logan's Lair sound good...  :roll: :roll: ;)).

So this is the Room that will be turned into my personal Lair:




As you can see on the pictures, there is this big white tube going right thru and across the room, this will be my first task. The room isn't very high (only about 2 meters) and that is why this tube is hanging very deep, unfortunatelly I can't just remove the tube because it is from the heating system of my house, but what I can do is to relocate the tube. This will happen tomorrow and the day after tomorrow by some craftsmen who know what the are doing... :)

Today I prepared the room for them and demounted some stuff that would be in the way of the new tube (the new one wont cross the room and wont hang down as deep as this one).

Here is the room now:


I know, not as impressive as Nuno's, but it's mine!  :lol: :lol: ::)

More to come soon...

Thanks Darth!  :D
The craftsmen didnt mention the outrun, the snk29 or the pinball...  :-\


Well, the next step will be new wiring and plaster boards on the inner walls (allso i have to make a cover for the tubes allso out of plaster boards)... But first i have to wait until my car comes back from the garage, until then I cant pick up plaster boards and "square-shaped timber".

oooookay...

I really did continue on Saturday... but no pictures...  Because I only took the measures... I need more then 175 meters (!!!) of "square-shaped timber". 9m x 4m wood for the ceiling and alot of plasterboards...

After taking measures I went to the local timber mill but he cant deliver the timber untill the 9th of January  :( So I will try to get it somewhere else...)

But I'm really happy I finally got all data I need to get started!

Today I bought the wood for the "underconstruction" of my walls and the ceiling. Because the local lumbermill won't be back open before the 12th on Jan and I didn't want to waint any longer, I went to a "building center" called "Praktiker" (Hornbach was closed today...).

Here it is, 200 Meters of square-shaped-timer:


Now I can finally continue building...
But, as I look at my pinball, I see a problem coming... as you can see on the picture below, there is not much space between the top of the pinball and the ceiling, but when I put a wooden ceiling up there I'm afraid there wont be enough space left... hm... got to think of something...
