Soon to be finished FISHROOM!!!

Sink location in the fishroom next to the window. Floor drain is on the lower right (cover with metal tape).

that is pretty epic...

All of this your VAN down by the RIVER.

It's a big van.

Wow this is going to be awesome. Keep us updated on this one!

wow... that looks really nice!

Nice build!

I used exterior doors for the fishroom to better insulate the place. All the cut outs in the walls and ceiling are sealed. As one of the pictures shows metal framing for the wall, this is to ensure no wood type material is in contact with the concrete floor. I have also finished most of the moldings in the room. Right now I am working on cleaning the concrete floor in preparation of etching the concrete, follows by sealing it with a water base sealer. I will then patch all the hairline cracks before epoxy coating the floor. I got all the materials for the job, just need to do the actual work. Still so much to do before I can move the racks in.

Since there is going to be alot of weight on the concrete floor, it has wire mess in the 4" thick concrete slab. This will give it at the very least 4000 psi rating. I can then calculate the weight of the racks and determine the size of metal plates to help distribute the weight on the concrete floor.

well at least you thought it all out...

To do otherwise would be stupid and irresponsible whether one owns or rent the property.

leisure_man: I hate your fish room.




P.s I am just jealous of you. One day I hope to have my own fish room and have people hate me for it.


Looks like its gonna be a nice room.

Awesome build-out!.. Makes my "man-cave" look sick!... BUT.. will ya have a lazy-boy and beer fridge and net-access?... LOL.. Bill in Va.

Right now, I am hating my fishroom too. Only got 2/3 of the floor clean.

Outside the fishroom is 1100sqft walkout basement equips with 53" HDTV, wetbar, a full bath, and yes internet access (aka: my man-cave). However, I dont have time to enjoy it, as the fishroom is not finished. I am heading to ACA convention 2011 tomorrow, which means another zero progress week. Original plan was to have it ready for the ACA convention, so much for that plan.
