    Ha! Awesome.

    I actually run a TV game board for rpgs so I can offer insight. Use real glass. Just tell a glazier people will be leaning on it and they should size its thickness for u. There were good reasons not to use plexi or acrylic but ill be damned if I can member why. The size I have on the larger version is aboot 42" wide. I can lean across it with my arms on the middle of the glass and it doesn't budge or flex.

    I can also offer ventilation insight. Hopefully u got a window in there. If so, get a piece of wood or metal approx. 8" wide. And as tall as the window opening. Cut a hole in top and bottom as far from eachother as possible. Pic up a size appropriate fan, the oscillating ones are fine just disable the oscillation. Fasten it to the top hole blowing out of the room and put a hole 1.5 times bigger below. This hole doesn't have to be round, remember to keep as far from the upper hole as u can. May need to mesh it to keep bugs out.
    There u go. Cheap ventilation. There are better ways of course, but I doubt this would cost more than 50 bucks.

    Thankfully, none of my friends are at all whiffy, or even mildly fragrant

    So window should suffice.

    I can do a packet of ciggies and a few bottles of Hobgoblin?

    Off to view the potential Nerdvana in about an hour, and I'm hoping I might have enough space for a spray cabinet thing. You know, box with extractor and that, what is for spraying things without gassing oneself?

    Anyone know if they're worth buying, or something even a cack-handed wizard like myself could reasonably assemble?

    Hello,

    I'm also lucky enough to have one room to express all my manly creativity.
    Here is the map of the room:

    And a panoramic picture:

    Yep. That too.

    I may stretch to a dining room table - that way I can host RPGs as well.

    Can anyone recommend a decent table?

    I'm struggling to find one big enough at a reasonable price.

    Would prefer to avoid trestle tables, but I'm not massively fussy.

    If you've got the tools around to build it, the classic 'Drunk Dwarves'-style table, with removable inserts, is pretty ideal. Sadly, the site's since gone offline, but The Wayback Machine [URL="https://web.archive.org/web/20081006134308/http://www.drunkdwarves.com/?p=200"]has you covered[/URL] there. The plans have to be altered a bit for a 6' x 4', but it's not too difficult. Four of us built one for my old post-collegiate homestead a decade or so back, and I believe it's still in use today. They sturdy, they be. One thing I might recommend is shaving an inch or two off of the legs, as we found ours to be a tad high.

    For the rest of the decor, I've got fond memories of the 'Game Pub' a few of us set up at our old workplace in a room we rented upstairs. We had a couch, a 32"-screen TV and a mini-fridge up there, as well as a small painting and game storage room in the back.

In retrospect, I wouldn't necessarily recommend the 'at work' setup - it got awkward after a few of us parted ways with the company - but it was a very nice place to be, while it lasted.

    Sadly, engineering is far from my forte so I really don't trust myself to build anything not pre-cut.

    Though I suppose I could buy the odds and sods, and hire a carpenter to bunt it together. I'm quite keen on a lipped play area too, as it prevents loss of dice when rolling.

    Cheers for the linkage dude
