Bob that's a nice machine. Just in time for Christmas. It looks like it can belong in any living area of the house. Where's are you putting it? Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: Slider-Bob on December 15, 2012, 09:43:11 pm Yes, it looks great. Really nice.
It's still in my Explorer. I have a friend coming over tomorrow to help me move it to the basement/man cave. Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: Seven181 on December 15, 2012, 09:45:48 pm Very nice Pat! Bob, you have a winner! Great machine!
Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: Slider-Bob on December 15, 2012, 09:47:16 pm The V-81D will take the place of my V63 in this pic, which I sold last year.
Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: buzz4041 on December 15, 2012, 10:02:02 pm Very nice job Pat. Bob that will look much better down there. Merry Christmas.
Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: BrianS on December 15, 2012, 10:04:57 pm Great looking machine. I like the wiring diagram hanging in the compressor area. That's a nice touch.
Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: Slapshot42 on December 15, 2012, 10:06:32 pm The V-81D will take the place of my V63 in this pic, which I sold last year.

Very nice job on the details too ! ! ! Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: Slider-Bob on December 16, 2012, 07:23:53 am Jared...No Keystone beer allowed in my 81D. No one needs to get a tummy ache from that swill!
LOL Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: MaineT on December 16, 2012, 09:47:52 am Post an updated picture in its final resting place.... That doesn't sound right, but you know what I mean!!
Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: bcharlton on December 16, 2012, 10:47:20 am Congrats Bob, I look forward to seeing it in place.
Brian Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: Kilroy on December 16, 2012, 12:01:45 pm I was going to drop in today to see it, but all I have is Keystone
Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: Slider-Bob on December 16, 2012, 03:14:43 pm Stop over Kilroy. We can drink my Labatt's Blue instead!
We'll be sure to flush twice. It's a long way to the Keystone bottling plant in Washington! Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: jholmgren on December 16, 2012, 04:05:31 pm mmmmmm..... Labatt's blue. My favorite!
Jim Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: Slider-Bob on December 16, 2012, 07:07:51 pm Here it is in it's almost final resting place.
I say almost final, as I have to cut a hole in the fake/drop wall behind it, and recess it back a foot into the wall to free up some space. Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: kbareit on December 16, 2012, 07:15:43 pm It looks fine the way it sits IMO. Glad you have it place.
:happydrinkers: Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: msanborn on December 16, 2012, 07:24:58 pm Looks great, I like the bar as well, did you build that yourself?
Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: mznb1u on December 16, 2012, 08:19:11 pm That machine looks good there Bob! Nice work Pat.
:drinking: Tim :drinking: Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: Slider-Bob on December 16, 2012, 08:29:04 pm Thanks guys.
No, I didn't make the bar. It was made in Mexico, and a guy from AZ bought it originally. Then he moved here to Michigan with his Company, and had it set up in his basement here. Then his Company moved him back to AZ. He paid $3300 for it, and I paid him $1200 as he didn't want to move it again. It is complete with wet sink, small fridge below, wine rack, etc. I had to cut it in one place to get it down the stairs, reassemble it, and cut 6 inches off the top, rehang the crown moulding, etc. as he had 8ft ceilings and I only have 7 1/2 foot ceilings. It gets a lot of use! We love it! Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: David D on December 16, 2012, 10:17:52 pm wow machine looks great, congrats Pat.
Title: Re: Sharing a few pictures Post by: rayg on December 17, 2012, 09:05:49 pm Great work Pat! ......It looks really good in your "Man Cave" Bob ...... nice Xmas present to yourself!
