Shaun_300 Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 Nice caves lads! Here's our newly renovated basement. All new leather furniture, 58" plasma, satellite with HD TV, surround sound. We were hoping to get another big buck this year for the wall to keep mine company, didn't happen though. Hopefully next year. We'll probably put my 5 pound smallmouth bass and my brother's 13 1/2 pound northern pike up on the wall too eventually.

dbHunterNY Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 I don't really have one yet. No extra room at the moment until I add on. I have a garage, but I don't think that counts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuntingPA Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 (edited) WOW...those are fantactic looking rooms. The boys and I got some work to do on ours, of course with only 130 Sq ft (13x10) and two walls being windows and the other two being double doors, it fills up pretty fast. Tbow, I have never seen a door cut like that to match the pitch of your roof, that is really cool. Yours must be in the attic space of the house or above the garage. Great use of that space, great vision in the final product.. Are you a woodworker? Did you make the desk? I have several decorative duck decoys I have not moved into my cave yet, I need more shelving or table tops, would like a bookcase as well but no place for it. What is the story on the old crossbow? Union, you got some absolutely beautiful mounts both shoulder and euro. I could hang out in that room forever, although I stink at pool...

Straight Shooter Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 Here some pictures of my man cave. All of the Euro's are bucks from Ohioy big 10 is from Ohio as well. The empty spot to the right is waiting for my 8 point I killed this year. The small 6 point is my first buck and bow kill from 94, the 8 point is from 96 I got in Georgia. The two fish are a cobia and a queen trigger fish I caught in the gulff stream. My bobcat I got in Georgia with my rifle. yes, i have to big screens in my cave, on eis for me and the other is my son's to play his Xbox on. the final two pictures are from my side of the garage, the arrows on the board withthe exception of the 7 on the bottom are arrows I have killed bucks with. I retire them for bucks only and salvage the Doe arrows back into the quiver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBow Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Tbow, I have never seen a door cut like that to match the pitch of your roof, that is really cool. Yours must be in the attic space of the house or above the garage. Great use of that space, great vision in the final product.. Are you a woodworker? Did you make the desk? I have several decorative duck decoys I have not moved into my cave yet, I need more shelving or table tops, would like a bookcase as well but no place for it. What is the story on the old crossbow? QUOTE] The door is for the closet that I built, as it is an old framed house (100 years old) and none of the four bedrooms had any closets whatsoever. The roof is a 6/12 pitch in a room over the kitchen and that corner was the only location I could put the closet without really hacking up the room. The door cut as it is, was the only way I could make it work and had to do some modifications to the slab door and also the corner of the shelf in order the let the door clear it. And 'no', I'm not a carpenter or woodworker, just a home-improvement dabbler. I've learned just enough to make me dangerous, yet not enough to take my own show on the road. LOL I made the desk myself in order to have is custom fitted into the end of the room. It's all pine laminated boards. Pine was the look I wanted for my room. There's a lot of mistakes that I made while fabricating it, but from a distance it looks good enough for me. The duck decoys were made by my grandfather and my dad. My grandfather was a blacksmith by trade and my dad was a machinist, and both were outdoor enthusiasts. My dad's decoys were working decoys, while my grandfathers were made more for display than anything else. My grandfather made the crossbow, which is approximately 50 years old. The prod is made from a used set of car springs. I've never shot it, nor do I intend to. It's just a keepsake. He used to hunt with it in the 60s. It's my getaway room where I've been able to gather all my toys that used to be scattered all over the house while my kids were still at home and taking up all the bedrooms. My toys were hid in closets, under beds, in storage sheds, in the basement and in any little nook and cranny that would hide anything. Since my kids have grown and moved out, I've been able to get the mantoys together where they're all now in my son's old bed room, now deemed "TBow's Mancave". WOO HOO!

RangerClay Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 When we did the expansion on our house I was given my daughters old bedroom and free range to decorate my man cave (slash) tv room. The only rule was I had to find a place for the kids larger games. As you can see from the blank spots on the wall that it is still a work in progress. I wanted to save some room for future trophies and a bow rack that I plan to build. Before picture After pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebohio Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 I'm Lucky enough to have a man cave and my own bedroom. i snore like a freight train so me and my wife sleep in separate rooms. (dont knock it until you try it) my room in the basement is my favorite. i can walk in from the outside with my muddy boots on. i dont have to worry about the dogs jumping all over my hunting clothes when i come in from the woods. best of all it is completely off limits to any of my wifes decor.

NS whitetail Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Here are some pics of my "mancave" ~ I am going to try and do abit more finishing work this winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TroutBum Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 (edited) What I originally "planned" as a place for myself and away from the wife and kids turned out to be the complete opposite. Once i moved my weight equipment out of the garage and into the basement, they took the hint. Edited January 4, 2011 by TroutBum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okiedog Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 I like the logo on the cabinet door. I have done similar things using vinyl and a sandblaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
