Here's pics of my space in the basement. When I walled it off I figured I was set on space, but now think I could use some more.

Ok so here are a few of my basement which is in progress (hope the pics come through). I am selling a bunch of stuff on ebay to clear the way and pay for some new cases.

dcgreg,
what did those jersey frames cost you? I'm looking to do something similar! thanks for the info in advance....
The jersey in the case is from 1938 and it had the 1939 Centennial patch put on when the jersey was recycled to the minors the following season.
I built both my cases and the bat racks. It's really not that difficult and a fraction of the cost of a professional case.

Tone, The jersey framing was done by Sports Gallery Web out of California. They do a really nice job and will work out a deal if you get a bunch of stuff done at the same time. Their webpage is http://www.sportsgalleryweb.com/customframing.htm
In terms of cost they run $350 to $700 depending on options (UV Glass, etc) and the number of jerseys you get done. They have a price outline on their page. If you get a bunch done they will usually work with you. Give them a call, they will take good care of you.
If you have any other questions, feel free to e-mail me gregguy@hotmail.com
These are partial pics of my "Man Cave" that is almost complete. My cave also has a 1950's style Drive-In movie theatre, wine cellar, game room, and excersise/spa room. There is a storage room that goes floor to ceiling with un-displayed memorabilia. We also have an extensive Sports Art collection. Some jerseys:

Here are some pics of my "renovation"
Bought a few bat racks from a guy in Lee's Summit, MO...solid oak, great prices
Have a few 8x10's to frame and put up and waiting on my Adam Kennedy 2007 Mother's Day Bat and Troy Glaus
Here is my stufffffffffff
Oh yeah before everyone thinks I bat for the other team I took over the guest bedroom in the house thats why in the previous pictures has a bed set with flowers all over it! hahaha. I spilled into the hallway and finally into my room which is this picture right here!
Sweet room/ hall/ guest room Berg. Your last photo sparked a question for you or anyone. The ball and card wood base holder you have is made by Ultra Pro. Are those UV protected like other ball cubes? On the box or description there is no mention of it, so I wanted to know what others thought? I have a few of them, but am thinking about replacing them unless they will get the job done.
I am really not sure if they are or not. I am not even sure they are ultra pro. so far those baseballs have not turned on me even though some in ball cubes are. Signed baseballs make me sad... I started off as an autograph collector still am but now all my purchases are game used stuff. I stopped getting baseballs signed because of all the problems they face over time.
After posting the pics above last week I was inspired to rip out the closet. Now I can display the remaining 120 Mariners bats I had in boxes. The wife was surprisingly supportive and loves her new handbag............

WOW.... I sometimes feel like I am getting a few too many bats and I am still between 15-20 than I see a room like that and feel like I haven't even scratched the service! :D Great rooms!
Thanks
My website needs to be updated, but here's a little more detail on the stuff.

TAY1038, I commissioned a guy from Michigan to make these for me several years ago. He had a supply of some very old window frames from an old farm house and he would use those to make the frames. The rest is new wood that has been painted and distressed to look weathered.

My ever changing corner...
Very interested in a Natural Rawlings Ankiel from this year if anyone wants to rid themself of one or an actual road/home Jersey :D
Still waiting on my 2008 Spring Training Jersey
Cigarman44,
Where did you pick up the jersey case? Lmk. Thanks,Roger:D
I got it at Hobby Lobby. They are 130.00, but every other week they are half off it seems. Got it for about 70 with tax. It just has a cusion back that comes off. Looks like it is made to tack the jersey to that board. Obviously I didnt want to put holes in the jersey. I went to wal mart andgot a small screw in hook (.74 cents) hand screwed it to the top and just folded over a hanger and hung it on that.
They also have smaller ones (22X28) I believe for 100.00 or 50.00 on sale.
The one I got is 33X40
Hobby Lobby does seem to have a half off sale every time I am in there. Store in my town has been out of those cases for awhile but I may have to keep checking after seeing how yours turned out. Very nice display!
I came across this renovation. This guy took his 1 car garage and made it into an above ground MAN CAVE which is very cool and themed it for the Florida Gators!
