some good tips here! did some finishing/cleaning today, happy with where this is going :-)

Really good ideas here! I just thought of it indeed, the lighting. I should add some of it somewhere, because right now it's either full on or full off. But with the lights on there is no way to see what is projected on the screen :D Also wifi indeed, seems like a must, didn't consider that...

Oh but I do, and those pictures are really beyond nice most of the time. But also, yeah, waay too complicated for me. I just look at making a corner to project the EU qualifiers on big screen, and to be able to enjoy it with friends. Thats all. Sometimes on this board people have the most...

Hah yes, I still found pictures. So to GET in the basement, the stairs were completely wrecked, so we had to redo them and I tiled them with tiles. They look like wood, but they are actually tiles and they are textured, as to assure you don't easily slip from them. <img...

Here we go, just to calm down the women's magazine linking. I assure you, this basement would never appear in a women's magazine :O And not everyone on the internet is native english speaker. The before is all I have on my phone right now: At this point we had sealed the ceiling with a...

Just to clear this up, and it will be clear from my pictures I guess, it is a garage/basement that is used, not something with high dollar cabinets. And I use the term man cave, because that's what I read it is being called around here, I'm not a native speaker.

Any 'simple' garage entertainment corner inspirations/ideas? Hey all, Firstly, I will post pictures, I promise :D I've recently completed our basement (the really old kind) renovation. Basically turned it from a terrible lost floor into a basic basement/garage. Nothing close to anything...

Hey all, This is not really car related, but as I noticed there is such a ton of knowledge here on metalwork when restoring an old vise, I thought I would ask this here as well. So, I have a 'tap' in my bathroom, which needs some love. We're talking nickel finished tap here. It is the one...

very nice job on both occasions :-)

I have exactly the one listed: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0001P0T46/?tag=atomicindustr-21 And it is performing terrible :-) I am not a power tools person, so I would in fact prefer NOT to buy the miter saw, but if there is no other way... the wood is extremely hard and the shapes are round...

I have bahco ones, used & abused, very happy with them

Hello all, Giving some context first: We still have to install all the floor trim in our house. I tried to manually saw the corners at 45° but it is near impossible as they are hard ook and have rounded shapes in them. As a solution I wanted to buy a miter saw. I already own a portable circular...

Hey all, I was wondering, besides brands, let's say a tool is old and rusty: how can you check if it is actually a good quality tool? Say you find old rusty chisels, hammerheads, saws, wood files etc... (which is my case), how do you know? I ask because there is a lot of rust to be removed and...

Excellent restore! How did you get the slide so nice and clean without disc marks? Electrofunk?

Hello all, Basically, below I have two questions: 1) Can you paint experts please check the link below, and tell me if it is a good or bad idea to paint my basement/garage/workshop floor with this. I don't do any welding, but a lot of general projects (wood & leather work for example), so the...
