    Thanks man, not quite there yet, but it should happen. What do you guys think of replacing the tile with wood flooring?

    Everyone has some great points about tile versus wood flooring. One thing rarely considered is the way flooring dramatically effects the acoustics of a room.
    Me, personally I prefer tile to be in certain areas such as kitchens and bathrooms because there's not a whole lot of noise sources a person would want to pay attention to. A dramatically contrasted example would be a tile floor in a home theater. In that case you have two or more sound sources which you definitely don't want multiple room reflections.

    I am not sure if a room full of pins in a highly acoustically reflective room would be versus a lesser one regarding someone who may be sensitive to the noise. I only have two pins and they are EM. If I had a choice in designing a game/entertainment room it would most surely have flooring of thick carpet and I'll do some kind of sound absorbing wall treatment. An acoustically "dead" room naturally sounds warmer and more inviting than its opposite.

    The room in question, the one in the pics is where I am considering the wood. To be honest, im not a real serious audiophile, so the feel and the look of the room are more what I would be interested in. I do want to get a decent home theater setup and certainly some carpet would have to be added, most likely in the seating area. I wont have that many pins I don't think, probably two, maybe three. I wont be doing anything until I get home and this tile is brand new and looks pretty good. Its just something about wood that intrigues me..

    Thank you for your input, it is definitely things to consider.

    Looks good! Nice mix of Stern, WPC, DE and Sega DMD era games. Need a Stargate now to represent Gottlieb!

    That is funny you should say that. I went to look at one yesterday and came home with Congo instead. The SG had to much wear on the playfield for my liking.

    Very nice room indeed!

    #1361 10 years ago

    I'm in the process of picking out an Amish-made shed/garage from a company in Lancaster PA. Ever since the roof to my garage collapsed (luckily nothing important but tools in there), I've been thinking it would be perfect real estate for a gameroom.

    What's the name of the company? Do they have a website?

    They better not.

    Quoted from Fatsquatch:

    maybe the internet has a hand crank somewhere

    #1365 10 years ago

    Wow! This is awesome! You can't go wrong with the Turtles machine!

    #1366 10 years ago
    Quoted from hlaj78:

    There are several. Just Google "Amish built Shed"

    Seriously.

    #1367 10 years ago

    I wonder which CMS Brother Ezekial prefers when he develops his websites?

    I'll try to google amish shed

    Very nice! You have a lot of titles I never played.

    Quoted from Roostking:

    Here is what I have to work with.

    Looks like a great room for a collection.

    #1375 10 years ago

    I like this thread. I've got to post some pics soon because of this.

    No one fights here, it doesn't matter what your machine tastes are, everyone always gets along here.

    #1376 10 years ago

    Just four as of right now, always looking for more..

    Our Little game room. still a work in progress. Next to space station not shown is a Baby Pacman that I have plans to get working, and a 60 in 1 jamma machine next to that. The Robotron has some monitor problems and Beer tapper runs but I didn't turn it on for the picture.
    Both the Robotron and Tapper are my wife's that she has had since the 80's.

    might as well ditch the couch now.....that wall is gonna look cool behind a row of pins!

    #1381 10 years ago
    Quoted from yzfguy:

    I have a feeling that's what will happen as time goes on. There is a TV on the wall opposite of the couches, but why not stand and watch a little TV?

    #1382 10 years ago

    Looks great Buckles!

    First thing I thought as well. Couches? We don't need no stinking couches.

    Chris

    #1384 10 years ago

    Looks great Buckles. I have to swing by some time to put some plays on your Tron MM and ACDC.

    And have to agree about that couch. Wasting WAY too much pin space there. You could fit 4 pins in there!

    You definitely have to stop by one day and play some pinball, and I still have to get back to Edmonton one day as well (my dad was just out here for 3 weeks visiting us, so not sure when I'll make it back that way).

    I'm trying to get rid of the couch as fast as I can, I've bought 3 machines since last Summer and the basement is filling up quickly!

    There is actually two windows right there and the blinds stay closed 99% of the time plus a shaded/covered patio is right outside. Trust me Ted, the UV boogie monsters stay away from my pins

    #1396 10 years ago

    Thanks.

    I need to get in the habit of not tossing stuff under the pins. It's just too convenient to store stuff under there!

    LOL
