ManCave Finally Completed!!

[HawksBrewer]

Yeah? I thought it would be better in the corner to bounce off multiple walls?

The best place is likely a foot from any wall or large object (in this case the fireplace), but that depends on the size of the woofer and the room acoustics. Having it too close to the wall will cause it to boom and create some undesirable sound effects.

Everything was going great til that Yankees logo went on the wall...

Have had multiple parties and more to come!! The comment every person tends to say when they see it for the first time is "Holy **** this is like sitting at a real bar!!" lol

I've had people see pictures on facebook and ask what bar I was at last night

Why is there a laundry room in the man cave? Couldn't you put the washer and dryer upstairs in the kitchen so the SWMBO never has to leave the kitchen?

Did you insulate the basement walls? Very nice bar build.. working slowly on my own...

Very nice job! The bar area turned out great and I like the tip jar (you may as well get something for your efforts). Also, the painted fireplace was the right touch. That is a great way to take care of the old red brick.

When can you start on mine?

 

[Wolfbayne]

[Jaybird]

Looks good, nice job.

My only question is...where do you keep the real beer?

 

[shutupjojo]

Looks great! One suggestion would be to add about a 3 ft. border of engineered hardwood to match the woodwork
around the bar so there is a nice stable platform for the bar stools to sit on. I would think the carpet around that area
will get thrashed over time with spills.

Wow!

 

[krduckman]

Very nice!

ALL the walls were insulated (interior and exterior). Which I thought was a good idea at first, thinking the winter will be warmer in a cold basement. However, it definitely gets hot down there in the summer months too now. So it is a catch22. At least the heating bill won't be so high in the winter. And a couple fans down there help a lot with the heat in the summer.

Looks good, nice job.

GUINNESS. Enough said.
