woodbm Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Seeing that tjanse is building an entire room makes mine seem a little lame. But I figured I'd share it anyway. I'm just glad I have a room now. All of this used to be in a closet with a few pictures hung throughout my old place. I just hope that I'm able to have a spare room like this when I move next time. Very nice!!! and of course HTTR!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thawk Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Its a build in progress. Started on nov 29 Wife wanted more space. I wanted a comic book room/ theater. So had alittle money saved up from selling off some comics. Did some searching. Bought most of lumber from auction. But still had to pay home depot about $6000. Drew up the plans got approved. Then watched a few utube videos. Of roof removal with a crane. I figure if they can why cant I. Removed roof on a friday had it placed baack on by monday. My neighbor helped me frame 1200 sqft top floor in few days. Cost so far less then $12,000 most labor I have done. When all done we should be under $18sqft. But I will have my room 10x 20. I will update room when all done about 3 months away Humble house Soon to be comic book room and theater I want to thank everyone that has made a comment. Also big thanks to anyone that has bought a book from me inthe last 6 months or so. Because in some way you have helped fund this. Now yes i have sold most of all my graded comics. So i will be restocking soon. It was a agreement with wife that when house was done. Refinace and pull some equity for comics around $15,000 is what i could get her to agree on. So be posting update in 3 months of finished house/ comic book room. Wow - very impressive. Hopefully the bottom level was engineered to take the weight of the top floor. Looks fantastic!

jessebrook1 Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Saw Reggie live in Atlanta along time ago, James Dewees threw the mic in the crowd and i got to sing part of the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gsims718 Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Man Reggie is getting alot of Love on these boards! I am surprised. He toured with the get up kids 2 or three years ago. They did like a two hour set. I've seen Reggie three times now. The last time I saw him was his "Farewell" tour where he opened as Fluctuation, Came out as Reggie, and closed as Common Denominator. He was up there for like two and a half hours with some costume changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
