Here is the end result, after 4 days of building. They needed one day extra to finish all the details. I don't mind, I love details, especially when they are done good.

Here is the outside, it has a few windows on the front and on the sides, but the back of the shed has no windows.



Inside, with a view in my future gameroom. The gameroom will be about 30 m2, not very big, but big enough to have a great time and a lot of fun in it.



Again inside, with a view to the general storage room. There will be a wall seperating the two rooms. The stairs are hung up with a hinge, so it can be lifted to the ceiling. I plan to install an electric winch that I bought years ago but never used.



The attic. It is huge and in the middle about 190 cm high, so I can walk upright on it. It's so huge that I'm thinking of making a second gameroom in it, just for my consoles. Ha, who has a two floor gameroom!!  :lol:



That's it, it i now up to me to do all the interior work. fortunately I'm not on a tight time schedule.

Thats awsome Erik!

upstairs i would make tables between the supports, when you sit in a chair, the height is not a problem
and i would reserve a corner for repairs upstairs, there is always work with electronics where you dont need the whole cab upstairs 8)

Just out of curiosity, did you make any progress? The building itself is already looking great by the way...

No, not yet. First the concrete floor had to dry out. It's pretty dry now, and at the moment I'm planning to get the final floor in (4 cm insulation and on top of that a nice smooth cement floor of 6 cm). I will do that probably in a few weeks and when that floor is dry I will start with the insulation works.

At the moment I'm pretty tight up with other things, so progress will be slow. But I should be able to finish it all by spring or so.

Yes, really nice! Can't wait to see this finished :D Good idea with the 2nd floor Gameroom for Consoles. This will be awesome!

Yes, it will. I will put all my consoles on the second floor in a separate room, with a variety of TV's and 15K and 31K professional monitors, a nice seat for racing games, etc.

Just to give you an idea about the type of consoles, CBM 64, Commodore 500+, Atari 2600, NES, SNES, N64, Megadrive, PC-Engine, PSX, PSX2, XBOX, XBOX360 (including an Asian for the hottest SHMUP's around), Gamecube, Wii, Dreamcast.  ;D ;D That will be awesome, because I will have room enough so I don't have to put them away every time after I played a console. And there will also be a desk where I can sit at and work with electronics, do repair work, etc.  ;D ;D ;D ;D
