New house and dedicated Arcade/Bar/Theater on the way

<< < (39/43) > >>

PL1:
Sounds like you're looking for more of a home automation setup like X10 (found these on Amazon) or a similar product.





Some of these systems can even be controlled by your iPhone or iPad if you're so inclined, but I haven't researched anything like that.

Love the plans! Can't wait to see what the finished product looks like.

macattack:
Agree the the thought of being able to cut the power to the arcades/pin, however is that really a good thing for them?

I thought it was safer to really leave them running than be switching them on/off multiple times. After all how often does a light bulb blow when it's on versus being turned on ;)

Just a thought.

More the valance I think  :laugh:

Don't get me wrong, all that stuff would look nice in a dedicated theater.  It just seems to clash with a bunch of arcade machines right next to it.

Yeah, electronical stuff only breaks when you turn it back on.   :angry:  Seriously, though, I worked at AT&T when they did a project to save $$ and one of the things they did was evaluate turning off the desktops in certain buildings to see cost effectiveness in their power bill.  What they found was that support costs for busted PCs and such were 4-5 times more for power related illness then the effective savings in power.

Anywhoo.. wish I was closer, cuz I'd volunteer this to your bar project.  431 stainless beer spillover tray.





It's 28" x 5" x 3/4" deep.  Probably holds a gallon of spilt tap beer.

Fully welded with no drain holes.  Found it in the moving trash at work when we switched buildings.  Still not sure what this was doing in a development office, but.

Pay shipping and it's yours.
