the last few months i been building a 10' x 10' (home depot tuff shed) shed to go along with my existing 10'x12' (also a tuff shed), which the 10x12 has power.

The 10' x 12' will be dedicated strickly for my arcade repair/resto work. This gets it all out of one of my spare rooms, kitchen table and back patio (THANK GOD!!)

I moved 9 project games into it,,i have a 12' long table...and also two shelves...and i gotta tell ya, I can't believe how much bull$hit i have!!!!...now thats its all consolidated into one spot i am overhwhelmed..I got into the hobby april 2014 and i could be on hoarders for arcades if there was such a show...im literally in awe at what ive accumulated thru the years..the tools..sprare parts..pcbs..chassis..etc..etc..im writing this post in the shed right now..its all moved it but nowhere near organized...i am packed to the gills...I still have 5 project arcades on my covered back patio that will have to stay there until i get rid of some games.

AND i have about 10 monitor/chassis in a metal building on some land i own 45 minutes away...those are there becuase ZERO room...i thought id be able to bring them all home now that i have a work shed but that is not happening.

And i was just on cl negotiating for a ms pac man...would be my third one.

Its a sicknesss i tell you..a SICKNESS!!

BTW..i did install a window and small window ac unit so everything will be in a cool enviorment...plus nice and comfy when im in here working on games.
 
This is a good subject. Pictures??
 
This thread is vaporware unless and until we see pics!

:D
 
Hey can I borrow your 10x10 to hold all of my monitors? That is how much space mine occupies at my house. Thank god I have 11' ceilings there too.

This is indeed madness. I told myself when I moved I would hold off on buying games. In the two years since I moved, I have bought (2) 16' ball bowlers, (1) pinball game, and (3) arcade games.


Good luck and will see you in the psych ward.
