Looking for ideas...hidden room

[jdbailey1206]

I'm building a control panel with an arduino and some switches and LEDs to control the mood lighting. 

You mean rape and torture lighting.

I guess if that's what you're into.

This my little hidden room for my Home Theater.

[Zakk]

Sweet, the star wars porn at the very back! 

[Zakk]

Well got it done.  Assault smurfs for everyone!

That is so cool, in a Canadian-hide my guns- kinda way.

Here's where I live....no hiding guns here:

Hell, open carry is acceptable here.

Yeah it's pretty messed up here.  We have anti gun groups openly confessing that they hope there's another gun shooting just so they can finally ban guns.  I mean, that's messed up beyond belief.  The ironic twist is that every legal gun owner is praying and hoping with every ounce of will that there will NEVER be another school shooting for the rest of time.  Funny how that works eh?
The hypocrisy continues down south there:

So enjoy them while you can, they're doing everything they can to make sure guns are only in the hands of the police and the criminals.


Oh and yeah, we have to lock, disable, hide, bury, cement our guns here.  Laws and regs that I obediently obey and exceed. 

[mcseforsale]

Yeah, that will never happen here.  Not enough liberal scumbags to make that happen.  What they're doing here is the Gub'ment is buying up all the ammo so there's nothing to shoot.  Frickin' liberals.

haha I think they proved that it was hoarders waiting at wal mart at 6:30am that was actually buying the ammo.  DHS released their "hoarding" numbers and they were big, but nothing compared to redneck joe and his 50,000 rounds of .223 buried in jerry cans in the backyard lol.  I was actually watching youtube vids of guys secretly filming ammo hoarders

Still, made it tough to find stuff up here.  We were getting norinco ammo on the cheap for about a year, like $300 for 1200 brass rounds, but someone stepped in and stopped it, rumour is DHS had a hand in it, but then the tinfoil hats come out.  I just want enough for a day at the range, I'll reload it all if I have to.  1000 rounds a week of my shooting calibers and I'm golden.  Spring is coming, and on thaw days you can go to the range and get garbage bags full of brass out of the puddles and mud if you get there before the other treasure hunters!

Good work Zakk, very classy and cozy looking (maybe you can put a cot in there and snuggle up with your AR and a good book ). Is the book case portion locked too, or just the door to the room? Probably wouldn't hurt to hide some kind of gate latch on top so it doesn't swing open when someone grabs the Atari out.

I'm going to make up a pin lock system for the bookcase, right now it's held with 2 1" rare earth magnets so it is held against the wall pretty good, but I def want it on there solid.  I was thinking a cotter pin or hinge pin through a couple of pieces of metal I'll fabricate.   

The door is getting 2x deadbolts, hinge bolts and has an alarm on it.  Inside there is going to be a motion detecting camera hooked up to the net.     Plus there's 2 huge german shepherds that sleep in front of it.

What's behind the back wall of this closet?

Smurf storage.

Now what?

Yep.  I am very progressive/liberal, yet I support strong gun rights.  My ticket tends to look like a shotgun target.  I vote based on research and some Repubs are very liberal and some Dems are very conservative.  All depends on the person and their history.

[pbj]

I vote in Republican primaries (this state does not do party registration) to pick the least evil candidates.  All I can say re our Canadian Senator Ted Cruz is "I tried."

I think you guys may be looking for Howard's hateful anti gun spewage in P&R, this is about a closet with a hidden door in it.

Which, btw, came out really well. Fun project!

Well thank you.  Yes very happy with it, working on tweaks, may have the bookcase operate on a motor operated by an arduino-activated  motor

[Zakk]

Man o man.  I've been playing so much with my point and click murder toys I actually shot a business card in half with a 9mm    I hit a rubber duck at 150 yards with a greasy mosin nagant made in 1942 (love that cheap old pile of lumber and iron!).  I swear there is nothing better than a hidden man cave for improving your accuracy with your toys.

I should mention that they just started letting us get tannerite up here legally.  That's right, explosive that can be detonated with .22lr!  Man oh man, life is sweet. 

The gun room has a fully functional TOS bridge control panel, motion sensor cameras, and sea bass with lasers.

Oh, and this is cool....Digital Extremes (the guys who made UT), had us out to record us shooting for sound effects for WARFRAME.   Supposedly they have video of our whole group out shooting, they set up an actual recording studio at the range, that was fun.  So there you go, only good things happen when you build a little fort. 

[ChadTower]

Sea bass with lasers.  I wonder if that grills well.

[pbj]

Yeah, he lost me on that one, too.

[Zakk]

[ChadTower]

I wasn't lost.  I just really like grilled sea bass.   

[pbj]

Ahh... okay... I get that reference now.

Nice, I just went out to the bush and recorded a bunch of gun sounds for a project of mine. The whole day was a success.

Heh around here that would get us 30 years in prison.  We HAVE  to fire certain things are the range, an no place else...

You damn Canadians and your laws....

   ...oh wait. I live in BC. I think the law depends on whereabouts you live, and who is around to care. Where we went, there's nobody around to care. We had a few rifles and shotguns. Nothing too crazy. But good times anyways.

Yup rifles and shotguns are good, but LORD HELP YOU if you dare venture into the wilderness with a  .44 mag pistol or :gasp: an AR-15!

[ChadTower]

That right there is the key.  Drive far enough and nobody would know if you built a full scale wooden navy and held authentic marine battles.

You can get away with anything until you start bragging about it.  As soon as someone else knows, everyone else knows.

Something to think about when it comes to incessantly bragging about exploits online.

There are a LOT of isolated inland bodies of water in Canada.  Those are the places you'd want to do something like above.  There is no fresh water Coast Guard.

That's how John Booth was caught if I recall correctly.

Actually... our ministry ---Deutsche Frankfurters--- patrol the inland lakes like vultures.  They can search and seize without warrants.  I have been anal probed at least 10 times in my life by these monsters.  Anywhere there's water, these guys are there making sure you aren't drinking out of it, peeing into it, (god help you) fishing in it or even looking at it.  I was once on an inland lake in a small canoe up north and they backed up a truck and dropped sea-doos out the back with ministry ---Deutsche Frankfurters--- on them.  They came and checked everyone on the lake for license and illegal catches.  It was like james bond.  In fact, they can regulate what you do on your own property, if you are fortunate/unfortunate to have any kind of water on or through it.

Yet, no problem bulldozing a river or filling in a wetlands to make apartments for additional tax revenue....

(sorry I really don't like the ministry ---Deutsche Frankfurters---)

Where the heck is that?  In NS you can camp out on an tiny island for a two weeks and not see another person.  There was a lake where I grew up that if you were on it, and saw another person, you'd be thinking"who the hell is THAT guy" for days.

I'm talking outside of the "within 100 miles of the US border" part of Canada. 

[pbj]

It was like that on the beaches in the Caribbean.  One other car on the beach?  Too crowded, we're driving to the next one.  Too bad I never got into more trouble than poaching lobsters, I suppose.
