I just scrolled through all the pictures looking for one of the actual mine. Soooo, where’s a pic of inside the mine?
Quoted from whthrs166:The mine is vertical shaft (straight down 150' to an adit network underground (horizontal shafts with no portals) The mine was capped a few years ago when a neighbor's dog fell down the shaft (too dangerous) When I got the property and brought up my wife and daughter, the first thing my daughter wanted to do was go look at the shaft. (glad it's capped) The building was a shaft house that had a winch to drop the ore carts and miners down to the work area.
Oh, I guess I missed the point of the project. I thought you were going to basically convert a mine to an arcade and put games inside the mine itself. So, the mine is incidental?
Quoted from whthrs166:Putting games inside of a real mine shaft with water leaking everywhere and dangers of cave ins due to rotting wood beams with rodents and other critters is not a good idea.
That’s what I was thinking, so I was curious how you were going to pull it off.
Quoted from whthrs166:Gotcha! Yep We are going to do it this way. Safer and little more comfortable.
Living in SoCal, I often think how it would be to sell my overpriced tiny house, and buy a spot of land like this to retire on.
Nah.
