I just finished the cabinet part of my cabinet yesterday and moved it from my garage into my family room where I had made a space for it. Well, it's a friggn' monster!!! I didn't realize how huge it was gonna look down there and it pretty much dwarfs everything else in the room. Now I am sooooo bummed I don't know what I'm gonna do. I really don't have anywhere else to put it either. Maybe I should sell it and then build a Cocktail cab... but I doubt I'll get what I put into this thing back if I try to sell it. Oh well, at least my wife is being really cool. She says that I put a lot of hard work into it and that we can keep it in the family room, but realistically there is just no space that I can see there for it. :'(

Okay, when I get home from work today I'll put one up one this page.

Any chance of converting your garage to a game room? It's a lotta work, but could solve your problem and free up more space for additional cabs.
I ended up doing this to my three car garage and haven't regretted the decision.

I'd love to do that... but unfortunately my wife and I both drive crap cars so I'm always out there working on them. :-\

I'd say to live with it for a while and see if it grows on you. When I first got my big-screen TV, I thought "jeez, that thing is way too big"....but after a few months, it seems just fine. I bet your cabinet won't look so big after a few weeks.

You're right. I've moved some things around and it seems like it will be ok. I'll post some pics in the Project Announcements board as soon as I install my finished bezel.
