I would actually be interested in checking into that, but I am 99% certain the wife is not interested in renting out a room. It would be great to have another guy with similar interests around to do projects with.You know... you could rent me your second kids room and i could cover visors for you all day... lol
The Mancave flooring is complete and we have the Plasma, couches and desk in there. I'll snap some pics. My Mom bought me a sign that says "Mancave" she found.

I'm a little annoyed that the Samsung Smart BlueRay with WiFi requires a USB adapter in order to use WiFi. Kept telling me to install Ethernet cable. Read the book and realized a USB adapter is needed. Not cool! You plug the USB adapter into the router.
Nice work on the flooring. Are you sure you can't just get one of those little USB wireless adapters? I think they are only like $20, and then you could just do it with a wireless connection to your router.

Maybe some weekend you could stop over if you are in town and you can see my meager setup and shoot the ****.
I would really like that.
They raised my rent at my current place to over 1300 a month for a 1br.
So im looking at places in Arlington/Alexandria area.
The floor was done by a friend who also has OCD so it came out just perfect. He took the time and did it way beyond any Home Depot installer would do.
Yeah, my wife and I took it a few steps farther than that. We spend the extra money for the quiet walk underlay which is $50/bag, and a pain in the butt to cut. It was worth it though, because it sounds just like walking on hardwood now. We also didn't want to use any quarter round or glue. So we took the extra time to pull all the baseboards, sand and paint them as well as cut all the door jambs. We also had to sand down the bottoms of all the walls, and repaint them as well. So now it looks like the floor came with the house with no extra shoe molding. That was 3 months of my life I'll never get back.

DC area cost of living is ridiculous. even where i am outside of philadelphia it's 1200 for a one bedroom. granted its a nice place with great highway access but still it's only 950 sq. ft.
My mortgage (P&I, insurance and property tax escrow) is $2700 per month. That is for a small 2 level, 3 bedroom house in Bethesda. Freaking ridiculous. It was not at all like this here when I was growing up ... my parent's house was like 20 grand in the late 60s, and it was a big house in chevy chase with a pool. That house would probably go for 1.5 mil or more now.That is twice my mortgage on a 2 story 3br house in Grand Rapids
You should all move to Michigan (if you can get jobs)...
I can get you five acres, 3,000 sq ft, 5 beds, 4 baths, sweet multi-level deck, on a bluff overlooking 1,200 feet of water frontage on the grand river for right around 300,000...three outbuildings including a three car detached with hoist and a 12 stall horse barn...
(Of course, I rent a ****-a55 box of an apartment with 3 bedrooms for a grand a month, so what do I really know, I guess)
