Thanks. The white walls are now darkish blue, I painted them last week.

The separate corner will be a place for my console games, there will be a desk in it, a fridge and a storage cabinet.

A new update. All walls are now painted, orange and blue. And last week I layed the laminate floor.







Last spot ...... and after this first coat I needed a second one.  :(



Floor work:









That´s it. Only things still to do is the floor skirting and the electricity. Normally I would have done electricity before painting etc, but unfortunately for a good reason I couldn´t. So it will be the last thing to do.

Oh, and I bought this neon last week on the Bay, it will look great:



As will this one (next one on my shopping list)

Today it´s update time, so here goes my second post of the day.

Normally I would wait with getting cabs into the gameroom until at least electricity works would be finished, but my wife thinks that she has been ptient enough allowing some cabs in our bedroom.  :) ;D :lol:

And she is right, as always, so today I already moved some cabs to the gameroom. But the first one needed some new ´feet´ (how do you call them in English?)



I replaced them by some very nice teflon ones, which Olly gave me when I collected his Gravitar.



Unfortunately I only had one set, can someone tell me where I can get more of these? They are very nice because they don´t damage the floor and you can slide the cab around pretty easily.

Anyway, The black lady is ready to enter the gameroom



And here she is, not on her final spot, but in the gameroom. YYYYYEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH !! The first game is in  :spaceace: :spaceace:





And quickly accompanied by another great game





And to top it off, some Asian temperament was added  :D



This Candy cab will be accompanied by two other ones.

Here they are all three, let´s see if the can stand each other.  :lol:

wonderful, erik, i like what you're doing in / with your gameroom - keep the pics coming, please!

as for the leg levelers, these are exactly the ones i've been using for a long time, i got them in bulk from a KLOVer, but he doesn't carry them anymore because i bought everything he had left :P. but, you can order "the exact same model" right here, if you take 10+ they get much cheaper. hwoever, from what i know, shipping is pretty expensive on that site!
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!

Yes, those feet are called leg levellers and indeed those are GREAT.

Does Phoenix allow a custom text or did you hack the ROMs ?

That BW looks as sexy as .....a Gravitar ;););)

Nice fridge, looks really spacy ! The display in the door looks a little bit expensive though.  ;D ;D ;D

LOL

The Phoenix rom was hacked, not by me though.

Thanks for the link Ully, I might get some there.

perhaps we could get togehter on this one, shipping is really a pain in the a**, just checked: 35 bucks shipping alone - that's insane!!!
