    Wow, nice progress. I can't imagine carry that many sheets. Friend and I carried 30 and thought I was going to die!

    That will be massive space. Can I use the theatre room to stay overnight since you're close to my work? I will Febreeze before and after so it doesn't stink.

    How many machines do you think you can cram down there in the space you have slotted for pins?

    What are your considerations on a subfloor? And I almost wonder do you need one? I'm sure you could just have the floor etched and styled as it is to keep costs down and maybe place some rugs down where people stand, etc. I'm a strong supporter of DriCore but it does get costly at $6 a 2x2'.

    I will say that our basement prior to my remodel was that thin crappy carpet put on the bare concrete. When we went with the DriCore we noticed a huge improvement in comfort standing as well as it felt less warm. Glad to hear others that have had it over 10 years. Ours is 4-5 years now and still holding up great even with pins there and my woman neighbor friend who's a bit heavy (5'4" and 320 lbs).

    Looking great. I have a low ceiling and still chose a subfloor. The added warmth and comfort is worth more than any bass traps. I hate fish anyway.

    I think it looks nice and the columns will go well with the look you've created/intended. I come from a place where I have many opinions but if I don't like something I won't insult it. Oh well, even a nice thread still has it's negativity nannies again and again and again...

    So what else is left to hit the finish line on the theater room? Are you going to wrap that up first and then follow up with the rest of the basement? Or ? It looks like you're making nice and steady progress.

    It looks to be shaping up nicely. Anxious to see you have it done now. It sounds like you're so close!

    You could have had a powerball if you wanted to buy my TZ! But I don't think that would have helped your lottery chances.

    Very cool! Now you need a DH pin!

    It's coming along well! I'm sure with the work lights out as you said it will look great and the black will be fine. The worst part about doing painting and finish work it seems is that you are so up close to your work you're always seeing something that could be better. Nice work!

    Maybe you need to spend less time playing and more time working and that floor would be done. JK!

    Looks really nice and classy. What's left? Looks like you're ready to invite everyone?!

    #255 5 years ago
    Quoted from Spyderturbo007:

    I wish. But you're welcome to stop by anytime.
    Cabinets and granite for the bar and carpet for the game room. I also need to buy and hang all the TVs an wrap the columns at the bar.
    Oh and a door for the theater.

    Seriously, that is a sharp looking game/theatre/basement! Do I have to wear a suit and tie to walk in? Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

    Think you need this carpet around your game room.

    I so want to comment about you wanting the one with the vein in the middle!

    But it looks awesome. Would a remnant of your size be 1/2 price (no features)? I'd feel better about missing what I wanted if it costs tons less.

    Controls look great. Will you have any cameras at the dumpster?!
