In my last post I finished the ground-level cabinetry and drawers for the north wall. All that was left...
So, it’s been quite a long time since my last post about my game room, but rest assured, I have been making slow, steady progress since then. Having finished all the other ground-level cabinetry and...
I've created a set of rules that allows you to create pilots and follow their careers through a series of games. I'd love to get some feedback if you're interested. Check them out on my blog here:...
Thanks! I'm on hiatus for a few months but I'm certainly not done. I'll continue to post as I make progress.
Thank you very much - I appreciate all your superlatively kind words.
Thank you.
This was a great post - very enjoyable. I'd read many more like it. (also an excellent understanding of what makes Watchmen Watchmen).
Speaking of lighting, in all of my previous posts I never explained how I ended up lighting the game room. I installed (with a professional electrician’s help) a bunch of recessed LED lights in the...
Now it's time to build the upper half of my game shelves. I've circled them in my north wall diagram below:

In my last Game Room post I finished the first set of cabinets in the lower-right corner of the north wall. My next task would be tackling the over-sized shelves between the windows:
...
Whoops…I forgot something: before I install the cabinet in the game room I needed to add a piece of trim moulding to cover the edge of the oak veneer plywood. I called Superior Moulding, in...
So…back to how I picked out the wood species and stain color:
I went to my local home improvement store and bought one piece each of oak, birch, and poplar, as well as five shades of wood stain. ...
Yes…all of those things help, and thanks!

A cabinet is basically just a box with a hardwood face frame screwed to the front.
I created my plan and from my plan I was able to write up my cut list (the list on the left side of the paper...
A huge part of pulling off the old English study look I’m trying to achieve is the floor-to-ceiling hardwood cabinets and shelves. Professional looking cabinetry, however, is beyond what I’m capable...
Thanks! I'll try to post more in the next few days.
When we last left off the room was all drywalled with windows and doors installed. Now I needed to figure out what color to paint the thing. I wasn’t sure exactly which color to pick, but I had an...
Last week we installed the windows and doors, and then I put in the insulation:

I’m still having trouble...
For your sake I’m going to skip a few months forward in time from my last post. All that you’ll be missing are countless meetings with my contractor, reviewing the plans, revising the plans,...
It started a few months ago. My wife and I were house-hunting, and when I was looking around the garage in one of the listings she says to me, “This would make a great game room and studio for you.”...
I'm been planning on starting a similar project for many months now, and I have a bajillion questions.
-What height is your playing surface? What is the length width of your playing area? …and...
Thanks to you both.
