Nothing to do with me mate, the cabin company are building it
If it was left to me this post would have looked very different, maybe one log up from the base 
Should take 6 or 7 pins, 1 or 2 arcade cabs and my decks + mixer setup
What size is it looks mint, want one

Looks great.
I can see the benefit of getting them to build it. They seem to have done more in a day, than I've managed on mine in 3 years!!

Always wondered what the Domino Arcade looked like from the outside. They worked hard that day obviously on price. Love seeing everyone's builds,

Yep, they’re top blokes the guys doing mine. Would have been all done today if they weren’t a man down but shouldn’t take them too long to finish it off tomorrow

Just to close this out, the Keops install guys were back early this morning and got everything finished before handing me the keys As a bonus I've also ended up with some spare insulation I can use on the garage door plus some very nice offcuts of wood I'm going to use to make a pinball ramp for getting games in and out

Very nice, but why's it got windows?!?

A compromise with the missusVery nice, but why's it got windows?!?
She wasn't mad keen on having a monolithic shed slap bang in the middle of the back garden. I'll be putting blinds up 
Missing a ramp to the door mate 
To get all the pins in and out.
Looks great.

Sweet.

Insulated floor with additional bearers for the weight, insulated roof with epdm rubber on the top, walls are not insulated but went for the thickest logs they do at 56mm I think. Double glazing on windows and doors too. You can basically spec it how you want Dom
the interior is all pine finish which I’ll be coating in wood preserver and leaving as is, the only thing I’ll do more with is the floor where I’m going to have carpet fitted. On the exterior I’ll be using wood preserver followed up with sadolin superdec weather protector.
Looks quality Chris, nice one , I also had to concede on windows to cabin but the blinds have been shut on those windows since day one 
.
You can increase the pin collection now or do you have to move them out the house?

I think the windows are practical. You may move house and leave it behind. Windows will probably make it much more attractive for the next owner. Your interests may change over time .... windows make the place more flexible
You could always shutter them on the inside with matching wood ?

Yeah, I've got a window and french doors in my pinshed, for that reason. It makes it a usable room/gym/studio/workshop in the garden when we come to sell the house.
