Took me like 6 months of weekends but I got the bar stocked, a decent tv on the wall, some old neon signs from Craigslist, and a pool table that I'm still learning how to use. My buddies came over last weekend and we had an absolute blast. This is my happy place now. Wife doesn't even complain when I disappear down there because she gets her own time upstairs.
Dude this is the dream. I've been trying to convince my wife that a man cave isn't selfish, it's necessary for sanity. Did you run into any resistance from the family or was it pretty smooth?
Six months of weekends well spent man. That's dedication, especially with two kids running around. You earned yourself a solid space to decompress.
The neon signs and pool table combo sounds like the perfect setup. Props on the Craigslist find, that's the way to do it on a budget.
Nice work on finishing the project. That's a solid accomplishment. Just remember to actually use it to recharge and not hide from family stuff, you know?

That's awesome man. Six months of weekends is a grind but totally worth it. Nothing beats having your own space to decompress. How'd you decide on the neon signs?
