Looks awesome! Great feeling to start to realize some of your long term goals! I got mine done a few years ago. Hope you enjoy it as much as I’m enjoying mine.

That's more like it. I hope you get some pics of it when you get it. I had a custom table built, but not in my garage. It's in the house in it's own special room.
We have a lot of fun with it.


I'm sure you will enjoy your garage for a long time to come.

Wow! Thanks for sharing the pictures. Really enjoyed seeing them. The whole place looks great! I did my basement a few years back and your man cave pictures reminds me of my set up. Enjoy.

The rage where I am is a roll style door so you dont have the tracks any more and they make them now with simulated wood finishes.

I almost had to go with the roll up door due to clearance issues. I prefer the traditional style door, but the roll up is by far superior for space savings.

I also considerd these, but it doesn't appear to allow for insulation on the doors, in the roll up mode.

I'm sure you will enjoy your garage for a long time to come.

Got a hell of a deal on my poker table from a neighbor who was downsizing. Now if life would just slow down a little so I could get a game together!

Wow! I was going to say I'm envious, but it quickly spun into motivation. Great design, very clean, and looks like a great place to relax and enjoy the things you appreciate.

The arcade cabinets are cool! Not very often you see people with these, and everyone loves a go at them.

Thanks! The arcades are 3/4 scale Arcade1Up brand. They are pretty affordable and will hopefully be less problematic than vintage arcade machines.
