Yes, the Project Continues

Yes, the project continues. Amazingly, the posters finally came in the mail! It took weeks, and I had given up on them, but they did come. I'm glad. The pictures here are pretty bad, but, well, you get what you pay for, right? Anyway, the two giant posters are Conan the Barbarian and Star Wars. The two smaller ones are Flash Gordon (the original 1950s picture) and The Blues Brothers.

Also notice the stage below the TV. It looks much nicer now with the curtain in front. What you cannot see is that the stage is completely hollow and underneath it are video games, a subwoofer, and DVD players, etc. That makes for a nice neat place to store all that stuff. Also notice, looking back a few posts, the lack of wires. Sure, there's some in the corner by the computer, but I'm working on that. But there's none on the wall. THAT was a pain. The wall has insulation in it, so running wires through that was was insane. Sure, it looks nice, but just running those wires took literally hours!

It's almost done (finally). I'm still working on curtains around the edges of the TV and the counter still needs a bit of finishing. I finally just installed it because I couldn't come up with any way to attach it except by screwing down through the counter-top. Now I have to try and hide those screws, repaint it, and finish it so it will survive when drinks get spilled on it. Hopefully not more than a week left, then I'll have to start a new project!
