Congratulations. Every man deserves at least 20x23 of his space.
 
looks like you have enough space for a table. The photo is huge,
and so I have to scroll from left to right to see the entire picture,
but it looks like a great man cave.

I had to smile when I saw where you live: Kokomo, Indiana.

Every time I hear that name, I am reminded of -----> this.

Dag nab it, now I'm going to be thinking about "this" all day long in my head.

Everybody knows a little place like Kokomo. :grin-square:
 
Congratulations! I am closing on my first house December 3rd and looking forward to getting a table in the basement. What size table will you be putting in?
 
You, sir, have a blank canvas, just waiting for your masterpiece.

(I am envious as hell. My table is in a covered patio.)

Please show us how it turns out!
 
Man Cave

My man cave is nearing completion. It's been a work in progress for a couple years now. Originally the idea was to build a partition wall dividing my 25 x 40 metal shop into two parts, so I could climate control one side. That $300 wall has turned into a $3000 remodel. After I got the wall up, I decided I might as well stud up the other walls for insulative purposes. That led to drywall, drop ceiling, and now much needed flooring.

The 7ft Diamond is my dad's. As soon as we finish his man cave, the Diamond goes to his place. Then I will put the carpet down and set up my 9ft Gold Crown IV.

Joe I will have to come over and check this out when you are done with it. One thing you will need in your man cave is a stripper pole. :D With you being single and all!

When I first talked to my realator, I told her I wanted a house with at least a 2 car garage, and it had to have room for a 9' pool table. The first house she showed me had a 3 car garage, and a 1 1/2 car garage. Hell there was even a house in the deal! lol!

Why wait till he`s done with it. If you go over & help him get the room finished, maybe just maybe he will invite you back when the pole girls arrive.
lol
 
Keep in mind, with that space you have room for both a table and a car. As long as the table is far enough away from one side wall (about 5' or so), you're good to go if you don't mind pulling the car out to play. This is what I did. I like being able to park my car in the garage so pulling it out to play was a small price to pay for me. If you do this I would suggest having the table to the right of the car so you are not always opening the driver's door into the table.

Wherever you put the table you just need to check that the door opener is not in the way of hanging the light and that the door can open sufficiently without banging into the light.

Many ppl who have tables in their garage with cars, just roll down the car windows and that allows them the room to do what they need to do.
 
Looks like you have some potential there, Joe! :thumbup: Will it be strictly a pool room or will it also have a bar, home theatre, poker table, etc. etc.?

There wont be any cars in the man cave man, I have another 3 car garage where the cars are gonna go :grin:. The door opener is getting taken out, and the door is gonna be semi-permenantly sealed shut so I can insulate it and keep it heated and cooled. Year round fun!

I just need to get the drywall finished, walls painted, and carpet down, then ill get me a table! :grin: It should be great! You will get to see it when you come set up and redo my table :thumbup:
