jpf3 this is the zoo. I'd encourage you to join Varsity or something. I like your mancave. Mine is fairly sparse, but people who come over think it is cool. Of course I do have Planet of the Apes, Robert Earl Keen, ZZ Top and Star Wars paraphernalia in there as well.

My house is my man cave! I don't need a room all to myself! I also have a work shop next to the house! My wife wanted to store some of her stuff in my shop, I said hell no put your **** in the attic!!!!1!11 Then I told her to get in the kitchen and make me a sammich!!

Well, at least the first four sentences are true.

It's like a starter kit for a man cave. But it does need some work.

OK, so let's recap.

Lawn chairs, butt plugs, old coffee table stolen from the dump, old bookshelf stolen from the dump, nice TV but horrible job mounting it since you can see the wires (you should have put the electrical box and cable outlet behind the TV), cable wire tacked to the baseboard and is clearly visible, turf grass, children's Fathead decorations, no beer fridge, in a hot garage, and in the same photo album as a questionably hot woman.

It looks great!

This is how you properly hang a TV...

  • Make a custom frame out of 2x6 framing lumber and flutes routed in the frame to give it a little decorative touch.
  • Add a spline joint to the corners to make the frame much stronger.
  • Stain and seal the wood
  • Mount an electrical box to the wall and pass an IR repeater and HDMI cable through the wall to another room so the cable box is not visible.
  • Install a 2-way mirror in the frame with the TV mounted behind it to the wall.
  • Hang the TV mounting bracket on the wall and attach the TV to the frame

When the TV is off your wife likes it that she has an extra mirror in the bedroom and not a TV. When it is on, you have a TV. I could offer to help you with your "man cave", but I might be out of your price range. Let me know if you are interested.

It's not too hard if you are good with woodworking and have the right tools. But, FYI the glass costs more than the TV. If I did it for someone I would charge about 2k (installed).

Didn't mean to thread jack this thing. Can't we get back to the guy that planted a fake lawn in his garage and called it a man cave?

Surely, you are kidding about the 2K. Does this include the TV?

No, I am dead serious. TV, wall bracket, IR repeater, electrical box, and mirror were over 1k in just raw material...

Ok. For all of that I can see it. I thought you were talking about setting up someone's TV with the mirror and frame and running a few wires.
