The Official Man Cave Thread

I think it should be a foot to the left...

 

I have observed one or 2 things DD ........ picture 2 is particularly hurtful!

 

Ah yes they may be empty now chunky, but they have gone somewhere and I guess most of them went in your gob!

I'll sort you out a nicely airbrushed signed photo, maybe with just the one gonad hanging out then?

 

Just to make DD feel better, my mess

 

This will make Greta happy, easier to heat.

 

that could be a great man cave! You just need a woman to tidy it up a bit..

Excellent idea @Cyborgbot, I could advertise at a local University and start conducting interviews for a gifted woman, tis the holiday season and evening work for some extra cash is welcome. Would require a French maid uniform or less

 

Nooooo! Don’t let a woman tidy up your man cave, you’ll never find anything ever again

 

As my first boss told me 'Organised people are too lazy to look for things'

 

Changed the bulbs in my garage
WOW
Put in 17w LEDs which are the equivalent of 150w and nearly got blinded
Absolutely brilliant
Talk about night and day

 

Pictures, we need pictures or it never happened...

 

Wow, Prince Andrew has fallen on hard times if the only gig going is the grand opening of DD’s man cave.

 

I have converted both my homes to LED. Made a HUGE difference in my electric bills. The workshop & garage have not got this upgrade yet. There is always room for improvement. I DID get to use the furnace I installed in the garage last spring for the first time last night. Raining and 40°f. outside/60°f. with a warm breeze inside . LED lights in there WOULD be nice. ...J.D.

 

Oh ain't THAT the truth. But going the other way...I can't find a damn thing in her kitchen [been married 47+ years]…J.D.

 

To the SAME woman. You poor bloke.

 

And you will probably be given a house and benefits.

 

Led lights are ideal for a shed or garage, instant on and not affected by cold temps. Down to about $20 for a shop light. Gutted the florescent lights in the caravan, and bought so tape mounted LED, slapped them on a piece of white cardboard. Tape is about $3/meter. Note that LED are 12 volt DC.

 

You can buy 1 meter linear extrusions with cover that is only 17x5 mm for under counter LED for your workbench for about $3/meter

 

As a born and bred west Midlander I can concur with DD's description, that's about right for specs DD for finer adjustment you can go with a lump variety
