@ bestlousy: nice arcade man I like it, very nice!

@ Flake: yeah there is a full bath/shower (a space for a urinal too LOL) & then an office aka bedroom of 14*17 but I too wished it didnt exist & damn my bar totally sucks when compared to yours, mine is just made out of drywall & Formica not stone, granite & etc like yours.

Take a look at the pics near the middle of just the previous page (5). You will see a sign that says no dumping, thats the bathroom entrance......the sign that says "reserved" & then the 'hot bbq served here" is over the toilet.......

Get it?

Hot bbq served here?

Over a toilet?

LOL I know, gross!

My GF says my humor is concerning

That bar makes me really thirsty.

Looks good flake, you are really progressing as a super dork (hey I am one too, all of us are) .

You added the bartop, a sweet LED pinball & now started the juke.....& you got rid of the ball pit too, damn!

Ball pit is still there. For the pics I moved it to my daughters playroom that doubles as an exercise room for my bowflex and eliptical that I never use.

Ahem. I have an answer for that in another forum. You can only gain room...and cash back from selling your unnecessary gear to someone else.

Hey Flake what are you using for speakers on the juke & where are they?

Flake · « **Reply #206 on:** April 09, 2009, 09:17:58 am »

Actually I'm using a Soundcast transmitter/receiver set to wirelessly transmit the music to my stereo receiver and thus the music gets piped through my surround sound speakers. It works really damn well to be honest with you. Costs about $100 though - at least it did around last Christmas.

Holy crap that is funny! I love tin signs, where did you get that one. I'm sure the wife would put the ki-bash (sp?) to hanging it over the crapper, but damn, that would be funny!

The BBQ Served Here (reference to used food) & No Dumping (same thing) came from some ebay seller from the Philippines. I dunno why their ebay name isnt active though, perhaps they did something unethical but here is their website: http://www.cyscorner.com/cyscorner.html

Its hard to navigate through so go here: http://www.cyscorner.com/NOsigns.html

The BBQ sign does not appear to be listed anywhere on the other pages :-(

Here are a few updates/changes to the game room too BTW

PW79, what kind of shelf is holding up that slot machine? I have one and was thinking of doing that. Is it metal or wood? I'm assuming it's pretty sturdy.

The reserved sign was from an old job, it has my actual name on it but I dont want to have to use my guns on some stalker from BYOAC so I edited it out.

@ extendedplayarcade: Its apx 2,000 sq ft total including storage areas, apx 1,500 sq ft of finished space & when taking out the office area the main room you see here is apx 1,250 sq ft.

@ clickhea: The GTA sign.........heh, that is something extraordinary rare. Some dude owned a video game store in like Vermont or something that went belly up.

@ urbecrisch: The shelf is a custom cut sheet of MDF, the shelves are super heavy duty steel ones from Home Depot which are mounted into studs with 2' wood screws.

Hopefully the office will become the "pinball parlor" with 12 machines inside it one day. Its hard to say however because I don't want to crowd the spaces to the point it doesn't feel open & airy or take away functionality of my house (as in no office or gym)......

@ clickhea: The GTA sign.........heh, that is something extraordinary rare. Some dude owned a video game store in like Vermont or something that went belly up. Somehow he had like 3 of em & they went up on ebay. Well I just had to have one, so I bought two. GTA neons to my knowledge have never surfaced since & I doubt there were too many ever made (they were made in the USA so that means no mass production obviously). Unfortunately I couldn't run over the seller with my sports car while listening to "take these broken wings" to get my money back.

@ urbecrisch: The shelf is a custom cut sheet of MDF, the shelves are super heavy duty steel ones from Home Depot which are mounted into studs with 2' wood screws.

1,250 is the size of my whole house. I have an unusable basement seeing in the house's over 100 years of existance it originally only had a crawl space. Someone dug it out but must of been short seeing the max height of the cieling is 5'11. Seeing i am 6'0 doesn't help much.

But I converted my garage into a game room that now has more children's toys than arcade games or pinball. I had a whole wall of pinball machines once ( a total of 6 at one point) but I had to sell three of my top pinball machines for my now wife's wedding ring. Everytime i see that ring just laying on the counter like it is a piece of tin and glass it really gets me steamed.

If i told you which pins i sold for the ring i might be banned from this forum for stupidity.

Do I have a roommate I don't know about? My house is also 1,250 square feet, 100 years old and has an unusable basement. I'm hoping to upgrade one of these days but I don't think I can afford to unless we move to a different town.

Add me to the Rastan fan list also. I just started my arcade. I just buy halfway decent games on craigslist that I can get deals on. I'm in a condo with limited space so I will get pickier about the games as I run out of space. Here are a few pics. Not as nice as all of yours yet but not too bad for a start.

Not really a dedicated game room. Just a few different games scattered throughout the basement that I just finished remodeling this past summer

Very nice setup urbecrisch. You have managed to pack quite a few toys in there. It looks like you have a kegerator in your bar setup. Or at least some rig for pouring draft beer. Can you provide some detail on this? I'm looking to purchase a kegerator for myself for X-mas.

Thanks for the comment Flake

Your set up is awesome. Love your bar. Only downfall is you're a 49ers fan

Actually the spout on the refrigerator is for ice and the black device on the bar measures an ounce of alcohol when you place a bottle upside down so no kegerator here. I don't drink that much to warrant equipment such as that

But you drink enough to have a devise that pours precise shots? Haha! Thats great, but seriously nice setup. Watching the Niners over the past 8 years has led to a direct increase in me drinking more....

OK. You got me

I actually should use that thing more often. Got it as a X-Mas present and really only use it for big parties. Niners looking better since Singletary took over

Not a permanent place for the poker table and chairs although the dartboard foot line is past the table so no one is right up against the table when throwing. You can vaguely see the masking tape line in PIC 1744. Have not gotten any complaints yet and my buddies would be the first to tell me

Thanks for the compliment.

Just your basic ELO 15" touchscreen mounted to a VESA extended wall mount hooked up to my CPU hidden under the bar. I have all the wires tucked away inside a cord tube (pic 6606) which can extend if Juke is pulled away from wall. Gave a metal sheet to a friend who was able to cut out the monitor and bend the two end pieces for a unique look. Ran some oversized bolts through the metal into the wood frame I made and hooked up some blue led's to pimp it out a bit and there you have it... Jukebox! Have roughly 200G of music on my external HD running Ultimate Jukebox (also messing around with E-Touch). It's really great for parties so I don't spend half the night rummaging through hundreds of CD's to find a few songs. I'm kinda particular about my music so every album is full! No singles or a few songs for each album. Have every song for each album! Found some old pics and of course the newest one on my finished room wall.
