The Rusty Barnacle C.C......work in progress SIM and garage bar.

This is the expanded view of the room as it sits today. Projector is out of screen and mounted on the rafters above.
The opposite view of the screen. A new floor is coming just painted now. I use a gaming computer for the graphics card and better looks than my lap top. Hole in the door was a fun day.

The room is 12.5 x 25ft. I use a no name short throw projector above mount which looks fine. Could use a better one soon though. I am using an opishot 2 SIM due to price and wanting to build a room around it first then step up the SIM itself. I figured it was the most economical way to brake in and to see if I would use it. Turns out I use it every day. The computer is a gaming computer and has a dedicated graphics card, this was an absolute need. It does a few things; first it helps in resolution and does not need to be updated to run any SIM program. Second; it can play blue ray for the kids playing drive in movies. I have the mat for the optishot which I bought from ebay on the cheap. Works better than the other rug I was standing on. I use a 650whtt theater system run through 5 bose speakers, got to have the sound. I use it for games and music. Play poker Sunday watching the golf with the fellas. SO far its pretty decent. I love the frigin thing and my wife likes it just as well. We go out to the garage have a few beers and play Pebble. Plus got the kids on the range every day and they love it as well. Thanks for looking. Have a good one
