    Re: Show Off Your Nelwy Renovated Memorabilia Rooms

    Chris it looks great! I wish I had a house with a basement but they just aren't that common in AZ 'cause of our hard clay/soil.

    This thread is my absolute favorite! Everytime someone adds something new I flip through the entire thing looking at everyone's stuff. It is some what comforting to know there are a few others out there like me!!!

      Davis -

      I know all about AZ - my family is all in Tucson and Surprise now... hell, a house with a basement there would be worth the extra digging cost due to it remaining cool all the time... the issue would be keeping it waterproofed from when the rain finally starts to soak into the soil (after all the washes have overflowed!) and then it soaks in quick and fast!

      Glad you liked the room!

                I thought I would take my turn and jump in....My wife agreed when shopping for our home that we (I) needed a dedicated space for my collection. I got very lucky and found one with a finished half basement. I would have loved a full basement because things are a little snug but it's better than nothing and is a great a space.

I have one that they are working on now. I can put you in touch with the shop that does their fabrication if anyone is interested. Nice cases for high-end stuff are hard to come by and I like having these types of custom cases where you can display multiple items and rotate them.

                          Good luck with the construction Konerko- be sure to post the finished product! Hope it turns out well.
                          does this company have a website?

                            Too bad we're not looking anywhere near last year's team... actually, this is an anniversary of sorts... last year on Halloween weekend, the wife and I road tripped to Lubbock - actually Amarillo and then drove into Lubbock on Saturday - for the Texas game just to tailgate... we didn't have any tickets to the game... e just parked, walked around and talked to people - hung out at Chili's to watch most of the game... and bought lots of new Tech Swag!!!

                              Salty mitt will mail Monday morning. You should get his LOA in a couple of days as well.
