Good lord, that's ginormous! I just built a 2010 sq ft ranch and I can even fathom it as "mobile".

Na, that's pretty common round here. They have several 'show rooms' round town just off the highway. Some of them are the same plans as regular homes.

However, why so much money? I hope you didn't buy fancy schmancy plywood. Low-grade subflooring would have been just fine. However, you may want to consider adding floor joists since the place will be stuffed with heavy arcade machines.
Oh, and don't forget that now you also need a pop machine, and a gumball machine, and a.... ;D

Most of it went to floor support and new ducts plus that foam insulation isn't as cheap as I thought it'd be. Although it sits on a metal frame it still has some open spaces that could use some support. Pics are comming very soon...the fiancee is in miami with the cam so I have to wait till she gets back on sunday :)

That was what i was thinking....It's my own playland away from the house. I don't have to hear "turn your arcade down I can hear pacman upstairs" The only problem I can think of is the cost of all this. It will be bare at first but I think after a few good auctions I can fill it up and that's where this is going to get expensive. The coolest thing for right now is that I can get my skee ball machine out of storage and actually use it :) I've got alot of plans but it'll be a long process. Hopefully when it's done I can get some people off of here to come over and have fun. It's one thing to own a personal arcade but it's more fun to share.

This sounds awesome - the ultimate guy's get-away space.
