yeah.. way too much work.

[Vincent Vascaul]

Its not for everyone but its really satisfying to design and build something yourself.

I'm still very impressed. I should contract you guys, Vince, to make me one. Sadly though, my room isant large enough for something that grand.

[Vincent Vascaul]

Remove the keys to find the filth

Wow, i really need to clean my keyboard...How do you take the keys off?

[Vincent Vascaul]

depends on the keyboard but most pop off pretty easy with a pocket knife (I dont recommend this for expensive boards they have actual tools for key removal) try prying one off on the number pad I recommend the minus sign as if you accidently screw up it isnt as big a deal, just slide the tip under and flatly twist, should pop right off. Also just to be clean I did not dirty up that keyboard I bought it used last week, the only thing you will find in my keyboards is spilled beer.

Good thing I clean my stuff on a regular basis.

Small update

Ok so when I installed my projector I was left with a 42 inch Vizio 1080p LCD with no where to go, I sure as hell wasn't going to sell it as I would eat my shorts so I decided I didn't need a whiteboard anymore and used a old wll mount I had kicking around and BOOM



It kinda feels like I am living in a sports bar now.

[Vernius Ix]

All you need now is beer on tap and your good to go!

[Vincent Vascaul]

A mini fridge is in the plans but a kegerator could be an option aswell.

I just knew there would be a mini fridge

Do you have good air ventilation / enough windows in that room? If you are going to spend a lot of time in there you will likely be glad for a good oxygen source. Helps keeping you fresh and awake

[Vincent Vascaul]

the room is underground but the HVAC system is in the adjoining room so it pumps a ton of filtered air into here plus there are 3 small windows as well.

Also I have a central american style hammock that I sleep and game in on the projector truly the best way to game

Hard to argue that.
