who me?  because no body touches me but me.

um .......so............



it also depends on how you arrange everything too.  square footage will be a help but if you waste space with how you arrange the games then your wasting space.  it puts mine to shame too.  after i build mine of course.

does anyone build to code?  like if you add a room you have to tell your town construction inspector so they can raise your property taxes.

I'm starting to spec out my basement to finish and yes, I probably will build to code and get proper permits.  I like my homeowner's insurance to be valid.

OK ... More progress today...

What in the heck am I doing?


A giant jigsaw puzzle?


A giant game of Tetris gone bad?


Hmmmm....

Clue - it combines more than one of my hobbies/passions.

No, the wife insists on getting one and I don't want to dedicate much space to it.  Plus the kids are short.  And we want a commercial one.

my local mcdonalds has an air hockey table.  i dont know why but ice cream and air hockey makes me happy.  sad thing is it costs 2 quarters for a 9 point game.  good thing is i dont pay my friend does.

do you want one with electronic score keeping or the slider?  wait commercial meaning for quarter use or like professional?  cause you could try building one lol.

edit:wait are you complaining about getting an air hockey table?

No, not complaining.  And I want a commercial one because having a fibreboard consumer level air hockey table next to a row of pins and vids would look silly.
