Man Cave
Did all the work on the Man Cave myself
Looks good Wil,.... thinking we had the same idea on the tongue & groove ceiling,.. stuff was ridiculously inexpensive when it first came out,.. but has since gone way up!

My basement isnt a man cave. Been single since 2001, so upstairs can qualify for that . Living room has comfortable sectional, coffee table to put your feet on, 50" plasma, high end surround sound and blu ray.
Rest of the house is pretty plain. Just had a bearing wall removed, beam installed and redoing the kitchen next. Teresa's input is big time in that area...just need to come up with the $$ to proceed further. Economy still has me gun shy in spending money. The living room toys were all bought years ago when money was there for toys.
Basement is storage, stove and some exercise items for the cold months
Shaw, that looks amazing!!
G, there aint nothing wrong with that. My basement is the same way. Storage and heat, only one room is nice, and thats the bar area. I just bought a new Sharp Aquos 65" 3-D Smart TV to replace the 50" Vizio. So the 50" is now going downstairs and I am taking the surround sound out of our bedroom (seemed like a great idea, never used it) and installing it downstairs. A large TV is all that is missing in my basement. The fridge and freezer are back to back under the steps (just outside the bar/pool room).
You do know why men generally die sooner than women right?The boss claims it is because she wants me around a lot longer.

Here's my "man corner". It isn't much and ain't very pretty, but its mine. Nothing says utility room like slapping waterproofing paint on the walls and dropping some indoor/outdoor carpet on the floor. There's a story behind that a bit further down. Some might recognize the appliance in the left side of the picture.
To the right of the desk is my old La-Z-Boy recliner from the college days. Still as comfortable as it ever was. Farther to the right of that is the weight bench/clothes hanger assembly. The desk is where I hide out when I'm working at home or on late night support calls for work (as I was until about 1 AM this morning). My ham radio equipment is all there as well. I used to freeze my a** off down there in the winter. Not anymore.
The stereo, DVD player, etc used to be on the other side of the basement which is fully finished. I had a full home theater/surround setup going with a projector for movies, etc. My wife has a home based business that started in a 12x12 room on the other side of the basement. It has since grown to take over the entire 800 square foot finished side of the basement, so the projector and surround sound stuff migrated to the "man corner". It's all worth it. As the saying goes, a happy wife means a happy life. I still have the pole barn all to myself.
