actually my friend steve did like 90% of the construction. my ideas of course, my wife and i did all the wood work ie. staining etc. and i just went into the house and storage containers and unloaded! the decor just kind of worked itself out like that. i still have a lot more mugs and trinkets to go in, but i need to build more shelves. i just cut a longboard in half to use as a shelf to span the whole back wall. needless to say, it has become our new full time hang out! its also connected to our studio so you can enjoy a tasty beverage whilst the creepy creeps play! live shows in the finknook??? idunno? lemme fink bout that! |

Pleeeease tell me that the longboard was not worth otherwise preserving!! I've been know to cannibalize boards for projects but just can't bring myself to destroy a longboard. Even when they are old and yellowed they still look great, like they have a really good story to tell you about the time they were surfing .... |
