SCREWNUT Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Stage one: Take a great show like Doctor Who, add a dash of a screwball fan like me and the need for an entertainment center to hold my Panasonic 42" Plasma HD tv with a kick ass home theater step ordered today. What do you get? Well you get this.... I know...I'm a geek what can i say! These were taken by my cellphone's camera...as soon as I get my hands on a good Digital Camera, I post some more pics. Waiting for my other equipment to arrive to give the full effect! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lutter Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Holy crap... did you order that or make it? I'm having a geekgasm over here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCREWNUT Posted January 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Hey Lutter! I didn't build it. It was done by a local woodworking guy and his wife. Their motto is "if you can dream it. We can build it!" I took the standard Tardis and dreamed up the entertainment center part. I was going to ask for the basic Tardis, right, but what the hell would i do with a big blue box!? With this though, I can now start on upgrading and rebuilding my home theater environment based on the Toshiba A2 and a future playstation 3 for blu-ray movies. If anybody is interested I can give you there contact numbers but I don't know if they do international stuff. I'll post more when it gets set up tommorrow night via my phone.

GreenMonkey Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Good hardware. You wasted money on the Monster cable stuff though . Cables is cables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Good God man, that's something! Very nice. Please put a phone somewhere inside too, that way it'll ring all the time. Also, when guests ask to use the phone, you can point at the giant phone booth in your apartment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan_E Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Nothing better than putting together new HT equipment! I'm jealous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foogledricks Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 I'm jealous too because my contractor is such an incompetent, that I have my awesome projector and receiver and speakers sitting in my basement waiting to be used.

Oh, that would drive me up the wall!!! :bh But better than my contractor story...the guy we were supposed to get a excellent deal from a few years back suddenly got work out of state and my-then HT was shitcanned.

Lutter Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 My girlfriend would probably dry hump that Tennant stand-up. Heh Awesome setup though! I wish my home theater had a theme other than the current "yard sale" one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
