Charlie64I am always amazed at the way you guys across the pond put up complete buildings and rooms from scratch.
In Europe and parts of Africa we would spend weeks if not months getting planning and building permission, connecting utilities - with prior approval of course - etc etc etc!
You guys seem to be doing it right !
Great trophy 'house' all round.
Congrats and sure you will have many happy hours in there !

JCOOK In keeping with my rep that I never throw away anything...I had been keeping my wooded cigar boxes and I wanted some different type of floor lamps for the room, so I made two floor lamps out of the some of the boxes..

Thanks Eddie, like owning a big boat,you always want one bigger and that is what everyone told me at the start...with that said, I have been very pleased with the room and I am not sure that I would change any major items...

AntlersWell, I must say, that's the first trophy room I've seen with a possum mount - WTG! I love it!

Look close and along with the possum, you will see a coon and two types of squirrels...this is my N FL and S GA dangerous game section and if you do not think they are dangerous ,just grab one someday.

Watched the room being built, but, hadn't come back to see it finished Until tonight wow, that's beautiful! I really like those lanps and wall brackets with horns etc. Fine ideas!
Your last post in Aug mentioned more pics and more mounts. Have you got them done yet? IF so, it's time.
Thanks for sharing this with all of us. Be proud, you've done a great job of it.
